Divorce :/

Recommended Posts

Well, I am currently dating someone.. boyfriend actually and he is going through a divorce. He has a couple kids and his ex does not want to sign the divorce papers. She just recently found out about our relationship through one of her daughters and she was not happy about it and she has now threatened him with adultery. Is that something that she can do because they are not officially divorced? I mean they have been seperated for quite some time now. I just don't know how this will affect him and his kids? I need some sort of help..

The best person to ask would be your BF's lawyer. Laws vary from state to state. If she knows that you started seeing him prior to separation, then I would think she has a case; even if she knows you met him with no dating, she could accuse him of having an affair and keeping it under wraps until post-separation.

 

When I separated, my lawyer suggested that I not openly date, unless my XH started dating before I did (and then what was sauce for the goose was sauce for the gander). It wasn't a true legal issue in my state, but he said it just kept everything nicer and cleaner for the separation period prior to divorce.
