Thank you for replying, I was wondering if I could do it without having the expense of a solicitor.

Hi, I'm separating from H without solicitors intervention.

We split just after Xmas and agreed that we'll wait the 2 years and go down the DIY route.

Not that I haven't at times thought about screwing the bastard good and proper, I just want out so the split is 50/50 from the house sale and we've agreed maintenance.

I guess it all depends what you can agree between you ( we've lived in silence in the same house whilst the sale goes through, though he works nights so that has helped immensely.

Stick to your guns at all times and never fall for any 'woe is me' crap.

And make sure you get a financial separation once you have your decree absolute... (Google is your friend)
