I’m in a volatile emotional place right now. My husband of 3 years and I are on a bad path. I think I’m in an emotionally abusive marriage but not sure.

Ive always heard divorce is expensive but can anyone share how?

Our shared assets are a house. We file taxes jointly. We’re on the same phone and auto insurance plans.

Other than that we keep bank accounts separate and health insurance from our individual jobs.

I make more than he does. I also have medical debt I’m paying for on my own.

I have more in my bank account than he does and that’s what I’m really worried he’s go after. None of it is from him. It’s my earnings over the years that I’ve saved, since my first job. We don’t have access to each other’s accounts and never have.

I don’t want anything from him other than my dog and to keep my assets including the half I put into this house.

Anyone that’s gone through divorce, where do the expenses come in and what does he have a right to?
