    But not entirely out of the question given previous form - not saying he does or doesn't just that it's not outwith the realms of possibilities.

    I was all set to give you both barrels until I caught that post, but I will say this - what you have done is not something that is right, justifiable or in any way defensible. (Neither is what he did 3 years ago) What I will say is that this relationship should have been over 3 years ago, it wasn't but it sure as blazes should be now! But what you do need to do is see a lawyer & sort out a place to go in the mean time.

    I don't think we are getting the whole story, not by half. That is if this is a genuine post anyway

    You took the words right out of my mouth!

    If he had an affair three years ago then it's been doomed for a long time....you've given him an excuse to throw you out, well done!

    You shouldn't be together if there is no trust, and with two cheats in a relaionship, I'd imagine trust is in short supply.

    he won't even talk to me, he won't eat anything I cook, does his own washing, and has moved ME into the spare room.

    I would guess that he is making it crystal clear to you and to anyone else who may have cause to question the situation, such as your solicitor or a divorce court judge, that he is emphatically not accepting, tolerating or forgiving your behaviour.

    Despite his own disloyalty, you have given him grounds for divorce and he is making sure that a bit of condoning doesn't muddy such clear-cut waters.

    Exactly what I was going to post. As his wife you have home rights, so he cannot throw you out.

    He'll need a court order to get you out and solicitor's letter is just that-It has no legal standing -however maybe now is the time to ask yourself if this is the man you want to spend the rest of your life with (one who has had at least one affair and would see you on the streets).

    The house is 50/50 marital asset -your choice if you want to stay under the same roof until the divorce is final (which would give you time to save up and find somewhere else) or move out sooner and start afresh now.

    I don't think as his wife he can just tell you to leave, it would be different f you weren't married and you would have to go. Get onto wikivorce, at a fantastic site with lots of info for your position xxx

    I might be wrong but I think since the house is in his name then yes he can kick you out - that doesn't mean you won't be entitled to 50/50 in the settlement of divorce but technically the house isn't yours but part of his assets he has to divide...

    I would of thought.

    It's the marital home. He can't kick her out.

    O dear op. I feel really bad for you and do feel that you are being very harshly judged. I can tell that you ae not proud of yourself and that you made a mistake. As far as I am aware, as it is the martial home, he can't just chuck you out....although I could be wrong. Do you have any children?
