All through our seven-year marriage, my husband and I’ve raised a son and a daughter, each of whom are exceptionally well-mannered.
My earnings quantity to roughly VND20 million (US$806) month-to-month, whereas my husband’s earnings ranges from VND12-15 million. Nonetheless, he contributes solely VND4 million in direction of our month-to-month expenditures, reserving the rest for his private use and financial savings.
Summarizing our personalities, I’m industrious each in my skilled and home life, at all times sustaining our house in immaculate situation. My husband, whereas mild-mannered, has habits of smoking and ingesting and displays a marked indifference in direction of me. Since our marriage, he has by no means given me a gift. In the meantime, the home we stay in was constructed on a plot of land gifted by my dad and mom.
Over time, I’ve single-handedly managed the family and cared for our youngsters after work, notably once they fall ailing, leading to a stronger bond with them as they seldom present affection in direction of their father.
Due to this fact, previous to the graduation of the Tet Lunar New 12 months vacation in February, I expressed my exhaustion and dissatisfaction with my husband’s domineering perspective, as he spends his post-work hours mendacity down and shopping his telephone, providing no help in any way.
I thus declared my want for a divorce, a sentiment I’ve voiced for years, solely to be met with apathy and no change in his habits. I warned that if he doesn’t alter his methods, I’d pursue a divorce and dedicate my life to our youngsters.
My husband subsequently disclosed all of the textual content messages to his dad and mom. My mother-in-law then berated me harshly, asserting that my husband’s job means I mustn’t contain him in family duties. She bluntly suggested me to proceed with the divorce if that was my want, additional commenting that my husband is a mild individual and accusing me of bullying him based mostly on his a number of defenses of me in her presence over the previous years.
What ought to I do now? Ought to I pursue a divorce from my husband?
