Thanks AS for your words. I feel so incredibly alone and just "hearing" your words makes me feel just a little less isolated and a tad bit stronger.

Starsky309. I must admit that I haven't spoken to an attorney. Not speaking the language and living in the middle of nowhere makes the whole process both tricky and costly.

Thankfully our problems have become "big" all of a sudden. It's only in the last 6 months or so that things have started go wrong and the kids are, thankfully, well adjusted. They seem to accept the situation very well. (And none of them have woken up at any time asking for their mother. I've always been a very hands on father and have, for the most part, been a househusband to the children).

I don't know how to kick her out. She seems to be in a EA with a guy in the village and I tell her to go to him on virtually a daily basis but she says that she wouldn't want to live with him (he lives with his parents) and how do I force her to do it?

Sometimes I think that this living hell will never end.

Still haven't got DB. I just hope that when it comes it'll give me clarity.

I've failed, dismally, with the 180. I sometimes think that I'm just too passionate. I felt so at ease for a few days when I was doing it and yet, for some reason, I have struggled to keep to it. (Perhaps because I don't have a solid support system?)
