I am not happy with my wife, due to mental torture, not cruelty.
10-Jun-2025 (In Divorce Law)
I am seeking a divorce due to persistent emotional distress from my wife's behavior. There has been no abuse, but I find our relationship unbearable. Despite my wishes, she became pregnant and now tries to mend things. I don’t want a child or this marriage, fearing lifelong obligations. This situation causes immense distress. Seeking legal or counseling support may help navigate the next steps.
If the behaviour of your partner is intolerable towardsyou and if you wish to go legal and if there's no scope of living together then rather stretching the relationship you should file for contested divorce under the ground of cruelty. I would suggest you to go with mutual divorce because it's cost effective and ends up in a maximum of six months.

Since, you are married there is no legal remedy that saves you from giving maintenance to her. As you have mentioned that you have a child too that makes the matter more in her favour. The only option you have here is to approach the Supreme court for divorce grounds for it and the steps you need to take will depend on getting more facts of the matter.

if you are unable to bear her and your marriage has reached beyond the return then if possible the mutually divorce her . for pregnancy , it is your child despite of your wish. let him/her be born. I can't suggest you to get pregnancy terminated. pregnancy termination /abortion is prohibited in India. I can suggest you against the law of the land.

You may file for divorce under Section 13(1)(ia) of the Hindu Marriage Act citing mental cruelty or irretrievable breakdown of marriage, even if there is no physical abuse. However, your wife's pregnancy and unwillingness to separate may complicate the case. The court may encourage mediation or counseling first. If both parties agree, mutual consent divorce under Section 13B is also an option after 1 year of separation. Since your situation involves serious emotional distress, please consult a qualified family lawyer to assess legal grounds and strategy based on facts.
