**Dear Wendyl,
**My husband has been having an affair for the past six months, but I only just found out about it. I caught him out and he admitted it and since then he has been verbally abusive to me, really disgusting and he refuses to move out.
Can I make him? I don’t have anywhere else to go and I don’t want to disrupt our two children. He could go and live with the other woman, but he won’t. How do I handle this?

Dear Hurt and Frustrated,
What a horrible man. You’d think he’d feel so guilty he would get out of there and leave you to it. I think if you both own the house it can be hard to get him to leave. I suggest you visit your local Citizen’s Advice Bureau for some legal advice.
Give them a call and find out what days the lawyers are there. Find out what your rights are regarding the house so you’re protected and have confidence about what you own. Then I suggest you sell it – he takes half and you take half – and get a fresh start. It’s been six months, you need to stop running your life by his rules and take control.
Send your questions to[email protected] or write to Agony Aunt, NZWW, PO Box 90119, Victoria St West, Auckland 1142.
