What is the benefit of trying to prove infidelity in a divorce?

I'm trying to divorce my husband. We've been separated for 2 years now. It's come to the point where he's stalking me, calling my friends, and showed up at my parents house unannounced to try to talk things out when i've told him no, no no no no.



now he's telling me he hired a private investigator who followed me for a week or so. he has "pictures" of who knows what. here's the thing: i don't have a b/f, a sancho, or a lover. i do have many guy friends and there is one in particular that my soon-to-be-ex-husband is looking at. this boy happens to go to the same gym i go to, but i've been going to that gym long before i knew that boy. also, my ex said that he knew we went to IHOP but I told him "yes..we did, along w/ 3 other people..1 being my brother." so his sources are a little skewed so I don't know if he's lying about the PI or if he's just randomly pulling up locations I was at with the GPS tracker he has on my phone.



Which brings me to my next point... I've been trying to separate my phone from his but Sprint needs him present, otherwise I'd have to pay $200 to cancel my contract, pay money to get a new one to buy a phone, and it's just an overall expensive route. My ex activated the Family Locator feature on my phone and that's how he's been tracking me down and stalking me.



Now my question is this. We don't have kids or property or investments together. What is the benefit of him trying to prove infidelity (which to me is having making out %26amp; sex, which I certainly did not) when I'm trying to get a divorce from him in court? I don' know if this means anything but my ex is saying he is trying to "fight" the divorce...how can the state of Texas allow anyone to forcefully stay in a marriage if one wants out?What is the benefit of trying to prove infidelity in a divorce?
solution: put your phone on a hard surface. acquire a hammer, or large rock. there are plenty in Texas.Now raise hammer high over phone and bring down forcebly upon phone. Insert phone in shipping box, address to him, ; now he cannot track you without stalking you. (call cops) get restraining order. he has option of cancelling phone, paying to get new one(which you will repeat above actions until he gets the message).

stalking is illegal. he can get 6 to 18 months in jail. how threatened are you by his actions? talk to your lawyer,if you have one.

the state of Texas doesn't ALLOW you to stay with someone who you do not wish to be with. they ALLOW you to get the hell away from the jerk for your own good. YOU allow yourself to stay in this rotten relationshipWhat is the benefit of trying to prove infidelity in a divorce?
Since most vows include a promise to be faithful, proving infidelity would show you broke the vows and you are the cause of divorce possibly releasing him from division of any assets and alimony payments. Unusual, but his legal fees could become yours too, since it would be your fault he is in a position where he is forced to divorce you....assuming infidelity is proven.



You would still be able to end the marriage, just the outcome wouldn't be as favourable for you.What is the benefit of trying to prove infidelity in a divorce?
You can get a bit more if you can prove infidelity...even in states that have no fault divorces. Just go file for divorce (should have done that two years ago) and be done with it.What is the benefit of trying to prove infidelity in a divorce?
There is usually no benefit to proving infidelity....so whats the point.



Also....You must be crazy. Just pay the money to get a new phone. Why are you allowing him to pay bills for you (i.e. Cell Phone) when you want to divorce him? If you want to be single...then just take care of yourself. It's ridiculous to try to have it both ways and makes you look kinda lame....



But - if I got it wrong...sorry.
