This post has been approved by the Wikivorce Team. If you would like to volunteer as a case study for this - or any other article - please PM Hadenoughnow with a brief outline of your story and your contact details.

"I've been commissioned by Fabulous magazine to find case studies of women who are divorcing due to financial pressure. Possibly financial problems are not the sole reason for the divorce but the relationship breakdown has been exacerbated by the current economic meltdown. Perhaps she and/or her husband have lost their jobs? Redundancy depression and financial worries have destroyed the relationship. Debts are mounting and their home has been/or is under threat of repossession. Perhaps one of them has been running up debts behind their partner's back - when these 'secret' debts have come to light the marriage has broken down.

Being a Case Study involves a telephone interview and a photo-shoot. (Photographers usually visit you at home at a convenient time) The magazine may also want to use personal snaps of you and your partner/family in happier times. There will be a fee for your time and for the use of any personal photographs. "

Yep,I am interested. My husband is a successful criminal lawyer who earned almost 3 times as much as I thought,told me times were tough,made me feel guilty we were having our 4 children(11,10,9 and 5)privately educated and as a result lived in a 3 bedroom crumbling semi!
What has happened to me reads like a piece of fiction and my solicitor and several friends who are professionals say they have never seen anything like it.Further more he has had me facing bailiffs at the door,had his family write to me asking me to pay back his debts and has left me practically destitute.
He is completely narcissistic and everything is my fault,yet after my 4th child was born I had many stand offs over his refusal to show me his accounts.I feel stupid and thoroughly conned.
If I'm what your looking for get in touch.Believe me I could write a novel!
Chass.
