Based on the facts stated by you, no spouse can be legally compelled to continue cohabitation against his or her will. However, a mere desire to seek divorce without any legally sustainable ground may not automatically entitle a party to obtain a contested divorce. It is important to first understand the actual reasons behind your wife's decision and whether there are any underlying matrimonial disputes. Since your wife has allegedly made statements about harming herself if forced to stay, it is advisable not to exert any pressure upon her and to maintain all communications in a calm and respectful manner. You may consider attempting counselling, mediation, or intervention by elders to resolve the issues amicably. Before taking any legal step, a detailed examination of the facts, duration of separation, nature of disputes, and any existing communications between the parties is necessary. Please gather all relevant details and documents so that proper legal advice can be given regarding your rights and available remedies under matrimonial law.

If a person doesn't want to stay with you, you should let her go. If you tried to keep the relationship, it may harm you mentally as well as physically. She may lodge any complaint against you for mental torture as well as physical torture .

at first I need to know how many years of marriage has been passed in between you two? secondly, do you both are residing under one roof or residing separately? If residing separately, then since when? and if residing separately, did your wife left her house voluntarily or not? then I am coming to the practical solution. listen carefully, you have your own rights to enforce and she also has the same. You cannot force someone to continue the conjugal relationship. Right? So, there are certain questions lying that why you don't want to give her divorce and what is the reason behind seeking her divorce. Divorce is an ultimate thing which once executed cannot be reversed and you or your wife once divorced cannot remarry each other. So, before coming to a conclusion you and your wife may sit together in front of me through a legal consultation, so that I can hear both of you discreetly and know the reasons and after that through a mediation procedure if you both thereafter decides to reside together and continue your conjugal life it's best. and if not then I would advice to prefer one Divorce by mutual consent petition before your jurisdictional court in order to get divorce hastle free. Don't worry I will handle both the circumstances. feel free to contact me for further reference.

A spouse cannot obtain a divorce merely because he or she wishes to do so. Under the Hindu Marriage Act, divorce generally requires either mutual consent of both parties or proof of legally recognized grounds before the Court. Therefore, if your wife files a divorce case, she will be required to establish the grounds relied upon by her. At the same time, no person can be compelled to live with another against his or her free will. It would be advisable to avoid arguments, threats, pressure, or coercion and instead try to understand the underlying issues through calm communication, counselling, or mediation. The statement regarding self-harm should be taken seriously. Preserve any messages or communications containing such statements and, if there appears to be a genuine risk to her safety, inform her family members and encourage her to seek appropriate professional support. Since matrimonial disputes are highly fact-specific, your legal options will depend on the duration of marriage, living arrangements, communications between the parties, and any allegations raised by either side. A detailed examination of the facts would be necessary before advising on the most appropriate course of action.
