Thanks, kismet. But I need *both* hands to type!

I certainly wouldn't have volunteered to go the L route, but H served papers on me in November. They weren't D papers; in N.C., we have to be separated 12 months before we can file for D. He filed an action against me to try to get me out of the house because his name's on the mortgage and mine isn't. But since we're married, I have to sign a transfer of deed before he can sell the house, and I refused to do that.

I have to answer that complaint on Friday (60 days after H filed it), so that's what this is all about. It's basically going to boil down to whether a judge is going to allow my H to evict me from the house right now, while I'm 5 months preggo.

Stemming from that is the issue of spousal support. As long as H is paying the mortgage, I consider that spousal support. But if he is successful in getting me out of the house, then I'll have to have support from him to be able to pay a mortgage or rent. And that's another thing we're fighting over right now.

So that's our struggle in a nutshell. I hate that it's gotten this far, this fast. But H likes to be irrational. And I'll play along 'cause I have to.
