what can I do about him?

My husband and I have decided to get a divorce. He has said that I can have the house and that he will leave. The problem now is that he will not even speak to me at all about money or the kids or what his plans on leaving are. He also has quit giving me any money to go toward the household bills. I cannot pay the bills on my own at this time, I was expecting that he would be giving me money since he is still living there. What can I do when he won't even look at me much less speak to me? He gets angry if I mutter a single word to him. I don't know what I can do at this time. I am so stressed about everything and he's living on my couch I really just want him to go as soon as possible. He is making it impossible to work anything out. Can I make him leave if he won't give me any money? Any ideas or comments would be appreciated.

Thanks, I will go and see an attorney as soon as I can. I think that's my only choice here. I am looking for a 2nd job to bring in a little extra money. I've made a budget and I can almost make it on what I make now so I think I will be fine if I just have a little extra coming in. I'm not expecting to get much from him, but he can't expect to live free either.

i agree with JLK, but my bigger concern is if you can't afford the house without his financial support, what are your plans after he leaves?

divorces can get long and gross...and no matter what happens, he's not going to be giving you 90% of his paycheck....

child support isn't much...and it's calculated by income and number of kids.  

so, i would sit down and do a budget and make sure you can afford your house and lifestyle first.

if he is not willing to talk to you about anything i would consult an attorney immediately.  if you are truly separated and getting a divorce the attorney can put into place a temporary order where he would be required to pay you money for the bills and for child support.  yes it seems like you need to get him out of the house asap as that is not helping your emotional state.  go see an attorney today....good luck!
