Hi everyone, just looking for a bit of help and advice from anyone in a similar situation?
My husband and I separated in September and since then I have been living at my parents with my two children. He wouldn’t/couldn’t go anywhere else and I couldn’t stay in the home until it sells (he has a new girlfriend).
The house is in the process of being sold and I am lucky enough to be buying a new property.
We agreed that I would continue to pay half of the mortgage and he would pay the household bills seeing as he is living there. The kids stay over around 2 nights per week on average. He hasn’t paid me any child maintenance yet.
When I move into my new house, he is complaining that I am leaving him with responsibility for all the bills on the family home – there has been a hold up with the house sale and I’m moving into my house before.
I know I have to continue to pay half of the mortgage as my name is on it – we have negotiated with the bank to have a payment break of 4 months.
I don’t understand why he thinks he’s getting a rough deal having to pay the bills on the family home?!!! I’m not living there and the kids aren’t there much.
Anyone have any experience of this? Any advice??
