It is not technically my house. The house we share is owned by my in-laws and we live there rent free. She has been staying there for the last year. Personally I feel I don't have much of a claim to reside there or to choose which room I can live in. I am a push over too, not trying to rock the boat since I don't feel I have a leg to stand on.

Our original plan was to sell our house we had together, live in this house rent free to save money and decide whether to build or buy a new house.

Now she has started the D process and wants me out so I am in the process of buying a new house. If I paid rent or a mortgage I would not be living in the basement. The separation is also probably good for us right now because I could not hold back my pressure very well.

She wanted me to leave two weeks ago when she thought I was trying to manipulate her. I did not tell her the day I received the dissolution papers from her L. She thought I was trying to delay and prolong the process (manipulate her), I thought her L had notified her.

We talked it through and she agreed that I could stay there until I get a place of my own.

I do roam wherever I want and treat it like it is my house as I did before the told me she is done.
