So, realistically, the only person who can give you a meaningful time scale is "the man" - do you fancy asking him?
Or, some EAs are good at 'handling people', so you could ask the EA to ask to ask "the man".
But "the man" might lie, refuse to answer, or keep changing his mind.
FWIW, I've seen divorces where one partner's only real goal is to cause their partner as much pain, stress, hassle, monetary loss and embarrassment as possible. If "the man" thinks that you walking away would cause "the woman" pain, stress etc, "the man's" goal might be to keep delaying until you walk away.
But there are many other possibilities.0 -
The “man” doesn’t have to move out and there is nothing you or anyone else can do about it. You are all totally in his hands and if getting a divorce he may not be thinking logically with his whole world crumbling around him and may just not give a !!!!!!.0
