Been there done that with selling a property and giving half of it away however we got back together 18 months later and now own a joint home again and all is sweet, I wasn't normal in those days
So it was your fault?
how did you find
did the op ever explain the circumstances?
maybe she had a stupid one night stand when drunk, felt guilty/regret it and told him.
he decided to end it.
Is it just me that really wouldn't care about the house? If I was unhappy, I'd leave the kids in the house with their mum and agree on spending as much time as possible with them.
Yes, it would be nice to have loads of money and buy lots of nice things, but I've been the kid in a nasty divorce, seen the results of hatred, anger and revenge. I saw my dad, my hero resort to emotional blackmail, suicide attempts and depression, my mum filled with anger and taking it out on me saying I was just like my dad, the man she hated, and they wonder why I've depression and BPD.
I dunno, I think I'd care a fair bit about something I'd been pumping money into for years and then right when you're looking forward to your mortgage being paid off you realise now you're going to be paying one until you retire. It's easy to say don't worry about the money but finances are right up there at the top of peoples worries, rightly or wrongly.
There are ways and means to go about divorce without bending over and getting shafted for years of work and being able to keep your kids out of it.

Hi
My wife has had an affair, do I have any rights regarding the house?
For info we are both owners of the house with only 7 months left on the mortgage.
She wants to sell and she gets half, I don't want to sell but can't buy her out.
Anyone with useful info?
Sorry to hear, but you need a solicitor.
The affair could have been for attention from you. You could discuss the reasons for it and if you both want to try, you could work at making a go of it, fresh start. There's obviously something wrong for this to happen.
I have tried to make it work, she wants nothing of it, she says we have drifted apart (nope, only her)
I have asked why, she says she sees me more as a friend, so at least it's not "me" that has caused this.
However she should have ended it instead of jumping into someone else's bed.
Could your house do with a new patio?

Id burn the house first.Yeah I know someone in a similar position.
Owned a house before he even met her, got married, had 2 kids.
She ended it out of the blue and is living in the house still
He had to move out in to a rented flat.
She wants to sell now, and his solicitor thinks that the best he will get is 30% of the profits.
