Hmm, sounds like I haven't been savvy at all then. I think I've decided that I will put this entire divorce thing on hold until I can concentrate on moving. I'm at the Decree Nisi stage now so I think I can stop it there. I need to be able to think and sort out my living arrangements first.
I've just responded to my lawyer responding to my wife's 'Statement of Truth' as she asked me. So now I shall have to pay her to read through my response. I think she (the lawyer) has also stated that my wife's claim that she has no money left each month (which is clearly fictitious - mind-read yes),even though she is living with a guy with his own house, etc. so she has less outgoings, therefore more residual - will effect any long-term claim. I also think that I won't be able to claim costs as suggested. so I lose again for trusting - lost house, lost money - for what?
This whole thing makes me think what the point of being honest - I always lose out.
