He's got a girlfriend?!
Since alcoholism is unpredictable, I took some precautions with personal stuff. Before we legally seperated, I rented a large safe deposit box. I put copies of our taxes for the past 7 years, and other financial papers I would need if he contested the divorce or how much I was seeking in support.
After we seperated, and I learned he was still drinking; I put jewelry and sentimental things into the safe deposit box. I was not taking any chances with an active alcoholic.
My attorney advised me that I could not keep him from entering the home since it was in his name. However, we were instructed to call the police if he ever showed up un-announced, angry and/or drunk.
He remained civil and kept his distance. We moved out of the home 2 months later without incident.
I hope this passes soon. Peace and hugs to you....

Very! He's still trying and it's not working.....he's getting a little testy.
My attorney said today we may have to move to a contested docket. That would stink, but she offered to slap me if I negotiate any lower. If he were thinking rationally he would see that the thousands he will spend in attorney fees would be wasted because he's getting a good deal now and will probably end up paying more if he contests it.....but if he were thinking rationally I might not be divorcing him......*sigh*
