OK jmw, I'll be as brief as poss. Our sitch's are different in the way that my xh as I call him can't divorce me as we weren't wed, but we co-habited for 14 years as if we were, we have a son together and xh doesn't for some unknown reason have any contact with son whatsoever now, none for 6 months or so. When he left he said that we could stay in the home as it was for as long as we wanted and that in the end it would be son's anyway, well he as rushed into a marriage with a very well known skank of a whore, she's on the third or fourth marriage and everyone says she as moulded my ex in exact the same way as her others, ie money sliding through fingers at a rapid pace, him not being able to see or contact his offspring, out all the time making people believe they are mega rich, he doesn't and hasn't paid a penny to his son in 2 years, also ex had just inherited a lot of money from the sale of his dad's house and redundancy money. So now at this point he as decided he wants us out of his house, because unfortunately I was the biggest idiot going and didn't put my name on the mortgage, it isn't that easy to find a place where we live and the local authorities are very slow when it comes to handing the properties out, it isn't a case of you apply one week and you get a house the next, we obviously can't afford to private rent or buy, because the butthead went off with all the money and doesn't give us any. He as threatened to get us out before, sending solicitors letters etc, then it all went quiet and he said we could stay again, this time it as gone further and he as headed down the courts way, never ever have I been in trouble with the police or been in a courtroom.
