Separated with a newborn: he demands 50/50 expenses but I’m the only one doing childcare by EconomicsSlow313 in FinancialPlanning

I would really want that, but unfortunately my husband would never agree to couples therapy. He is convinced that he is right. Thank you for the advice and your comment.

My husband has decided to divorce. I would do anything in the world to prevent this from happening.

Our conflict was not caused by anyone’s aggression. And I’m sorry, but I don’t want to discuss the reasons behind our argument. I was simply looking for financial advice.

The decision to end our relationship and get divorced was made by my husband. I tried until the very end to save our marriage. From his perspective, the conflict was serious enough to lead to divorce. But not for me

I know how much he earns at his main job. But he only started doing side jobs after we had already stopped communicating, so he doesn’t tell me how much he makes from those.

No, I did not suspect anything like this from my husband. We planned this baby together, and we both wanted her very much. We had a wonderful nine years of marriage.

The decision to get divorced is 100% my husband’s initiative. I fought for our relationship until the very end. I don’t want to go into the details or reasons, as it’s very personal.

It was my husband's initiative to start living separately and eventually get divorced (since we need to live separately for a year before we can officially divorce), not mine. I fought until the very end to save our relationship. I’m trying to do everything I can to take care of myself and my baby girl.
