Hi forummers, any lawyer to recommend little brother here. Really cannot stand living with my Wife anymore who will abuse me by calling me stupid ,idiot and go to hell . Recently she is getting worse by slapping me.

We always have quarrel over minor issue and she will bring up all the past and i started to scolded her and the show will start....pity my child who is 3 years old and seeing her parent always fight.
any advise..thanks
 


Have you decided already and are asking for recommendations for lawyer, or are you asking for advice on your situation?
Cos on one hand, it sounds like u have already decided to go for divorce, yet on another, you seem undecided.
 
I find Mr.Micheal Leong of Hoh Corporation (Jurong East Branch) pretty good. You can make an appointment to have a talk with him before you consider whether you want to go ahead with the divorce.
 
Hi Loming, I would advise you to hang on, but you will need to take some actions before there can be improvement to your situation.

It may be an uncomfortable thing for most Asian families, but communication is VERY important in a relationship. Firstly, you need to sit down with your wife and tell her how you feel about her abusive words and actions. Secondly, she may list down many many things she remembers you have done wrong in the past. You may not agree that you are wrong, but at this point please stay calm and listen first. If she starts to attack your personality rather than the situation, calmly try to shift the topic to the situation. If it is in your capacity, apologise (even if she's wrong) and tell her that you love her, and hug her.

Although I am a woman myself, I have learnt that it is wrong for a woman to despise her husband no matter how strong her reason is. Respect must be given to her husband regardless of situation or feelings, and husband must show love to the wife too. My friend shared that there was once she did not agree with her husband when they were making a decision, but she decided that he has the final say. If he turns out wrong, he will realise it in time to come.

Another statement I learnt during my marriage preparation course is that, "If you want your wife to treat you like a king, treat her like a queen first."

Hope to hear good news of reconciliation from you in time to come!
 
Hi everyone,

thank for the advice...actually the reason is to prepare myself for the worst....will be back
 
To hang on would be foolish of u...as ur wife would only continues to take advantage of u and insult u...let's not forget with the woman charter looming on ur head...u need to pay more the longer u stay in the marriage....unless ur wife is sincere enough to apologize to you and make changes to herself...get out of the marriage asap
 
The 10 Marriage Commandments

Commandment 1
Marriages are made in heaven.
But then again, so is thunder and lightning.

Commandment 2
If you want your wife to listen and pay strict attention to every word you
say, talk in your sleep.

Commandment 3
Marriage is grand -- and divorce is at least a 100 grand !

Commandment 4
Married life is very frustrating.
In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens.
In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens.
In the third year, they both speak and the neighbors listen.

Commandment 5
When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one
thing:
Either the car is new or the wife is.

Commandment 6
Marriage is when a man and woman become as one;
The trouble starts when they try to decide which one.

Commandment 7
Before marriage, a man will lie awake all night thinking about something
you said.
After marriage, he will fall asleep before you finish.

Commandment 8
Every man wants a wife who is beautiful, understanding, economical, and a
good cook.
But the law allows only one wife.

Commandment 9
Marriage and love are purely a matter of chemistry.
That is why one treats the other like toxic waste.

Commandment 10
A man is incomplete until he is married. After that, he is finished.

~~

A long married couple came upon a wishing well.
The wife leaned over, made a wish and threw in a penny.
The husband decided to make a wish too.

But he leaned over too much, fell into the well, and drowned.
The wife was stunned for a moment, but then smiled, 'It really works!'
