I Hate My In-Laws ? Family Conflict Affecting My Marriage


09-Mar-2023 (In Divorce Law)
My husband and I have been living separately for 15 months. We had a love marriage, which our parents later accepted, leading to an engagement ceremony. However, frequent disputes between our families created a lot of tension and hatred, preventing us from having a public wedding. With no other option, we started living separately.

After six months, my husband took me to his parents' home, and for three months, we lived happily. My family even arranged a wedding reception for us. However, after my brother’s marriage, new disputes arose between our families. At the same time, we were both jobless, which added to our struggles, leading us to separate again.

Since then, my husband has never cared for me, and I feel he has taken me for granted. After six more months, our families got involved again and separated us completely. Now, we have been apart for 15 months, and my husband is not willing to discuss our marriage at all.
  • What Should I Do Now?
  • Should I consider legal separation or divorce?
  • What are my legal rights in this situation?
  • Can I seek spousal support or reconciliation options?
Looking for legal advice on the best way forward.

You need to make a decision—be brave and honestly analyze whether your relationship was built on love or mere attraction. Not all attraction is love, and not all love leads to a successful marriage.

Remember, failure is not the end—it can be the beginning of a new chapter. If love no longer exists in your marriage, holding onto it is pointless. Instead of dwelling on the past, focus on rectifying mistakes and making choices that lead to a better future. Life is short—don’t stay stuck in an unhappy marriage. If needed, consider moving forward with divorce.

Look if you want divorce by mutual consent then the compulsary desertion require to qualify the same is 18months but in ur case u can ask the family court to consider your case, on the other hand if you both love each other and only due to your family hate you are facing separation, then I will suggest you to join the company of your husband above all, that will be way better for your present and future. Thank you.

First, I need to understand what you truly want.
  • If you wish to proceed with legal separation, we can file for divorce, and there are additional legal remedies available, such as maintenance and interim maintenance.
  • If you want to reconcile and stay with your husband, there are legal options for that as well, and a petition can be filed accordingly.
The decision ultimately depends on your willingness. Feel free to call me for further guidance and legal assistance.
