Some marital problems are so severe that you'll need to visit with a marriage counselor to resolve the issue. If he is angry with you and giving the silent treatment, perhaps you need to figure out the nature of his concerns. A marriage counselor can give you both plenty of skills for dealing with communication issues.

Is the spouse not speaking out of anger or to intentionally hurt the other person. If that's the case, don't just give up. Marriage is HARD! It takes constant work to keep one healthy. Find out why they're not talking. Is there something you can do to get them to speak up? If they're angry, find out why and work through the issues. Get to the root of the problem, whatever it is, and start there. Fix it and move on. If something else needs fixed, move on to that issue. Sometimes I wish my spouse wouldn't speak to me so I could have a few moments peace and quiet! Hang in. Don't give up to easily. You committed to a marriage FOREVER. If you're considering backing out of that commitment, you better be certain you have a damn good reason for doing it!

If your spouse ask for a divorce on grounds of abandoment am I entitled to alimony?

If my spouse seeks a divorce, it has nothing to do with what you are entitled to. Alimony is a very fact specific determination. Whether or not you will be able to receive it depends on the length of your marriage, your and your spouse's incomes and future earning potential, whether or not you have children and their ages, your overall financial situation, and the relevant state law. If you or your spouse intends to file for divorce, you should speak with a divorce lawyer that practices in your area right away.

What do you do if your spouse feels that you have greater loyalty to your family than to the spouse and you don't feel that there is any truth to the claim but it is a feeling that your spouse has?

Are you sure your spouse isn't right? Your wife/husband should come first. Once you marry and leave the family fold to get on with your life then your wife or husband should come first. This doesn't mean you love your parents or relatives any less, but of course it means you will be spending more time with your spouse. If you constantly have family around, they know every thing you do, say and feel, then yes, I can see there is a good reason why your spouse would feel this way. I think this is a question you must answer and please be honest with yourself. Perhaps see family once a week or once every two weeks. The first start of a great marriage is communication and you need to sit down with your spouse and ask why he/she feels this way. Both of you are adults and should be able to come to some equal solution to the problem. Good luck Marcy I totally agree with upstairs answer! To add my thoughts, if you find yourself talking about your spouse to your family or for that matter, your friends BEFORE you speak with your spouse, THERE'S A PROBLEM with your communication skills. You MUST communicate any grievances you have with your spouse first. then you can speak with your family or friends about it. If you don't your spouse will feel left out, with good cause!

How do you deal with a home wrecker?

This is a question that you can only answer for yourself. There is a more important issue here and that is your relationship. The "homewrecker" may not have known that your spouse was married. If he or she did, then that person shares some of the blame. However, it is unlikely that your cheating spouse believed the homewrecker to be his or her "soulmate." As such, the cheating could have occurred with any number of people.Do you still love your spouse? If so, then speak to your spouse and try to fix the marriage. This may mean speaking with a marriage counselor, a clergyman or other trusted person. You have to decide if this infidelity is unpardonable and requires a divorce. If not, then you may try to save the marriage.If you have decided that the marriage is not salvagable, then speak to a divorce attorney right away. You need to know your legal rights. For all you know, the conversation with your divorce attorney may make you reconsider your original decision.Whatever you do, violence is not the answer. Do not threaten or assault the "homewrecker." This will not help you at all. In fact, it can only harm you.AnswerBy your use of the term 'homewrecker' it is clear that you have not viewed this situation honestly. The only problem you can/should address in this situation is your spouse. Your spouse is the one who strayed. It is not the fault of the other person who is involved. They owe no duty to you. Only your spouse does. You need to ask why your spouse allowed the situation to develop in the first place, what is wrong in your marriage, can it be fixed, do you want to fix it and does your spouse want to fix it. The only person who can remove the other party involved is your spouse. You each need to decide on where you go from here.


Do you need a divorce if your spouse committed bigamy on you?

Yes, you need to obtain a divorce if you don't want to be married to him. If he married someone else while he was married to you, your marriage is valid and his second marriage is not. He has committed bigamy. However, you should report the situation to the authorities immediately. You should visit the local family court and ask to speak with an advocate. If possible you should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options. As part of the divorce proceeding you may be able to request your attorney's fees be paid by the defendant. If you mean that your "spouse" was already married when he married you then your marriage was not valid and you do not need to obtain a divorce. However, you should report him to the authorities immediately and make certain to protect your assets.
