Well my wife and I been seperated for 8 months now. I still love her with all my heart. We have 1 child together which is 3 years old. Just recently she anounced that she is engaged to her x boyfriend that she dated twice in the past. The problem is that were still married. I just want her back and don't want a divorse. My question is if she is engaged, why is still married to me? The money is not an issue with her on getting it done but i'm just really depressed about the whole situation and dont know what to do anymore. Im not working and trying hard to find work but havent had any luck yet. I need some advice on this matter.

Abella agony auntYou wife can get engaged while still waiting for her divorce. That is technically possible. She can even live with this man before she is divorced. That happens.

But she must divorce you before she can remarry.

If she remarries before her divorce is through she can he charged with the serious offence of bigamy.

Good luck.

I think you should move on, it's clear that she doesn't want to be with you. Unfortunately you can't make someone want you. she has her reasons, and the healthiest thing for you is to accept that and get on with your life. In time you will get over her, and you if you want to you will find some one new.

who knows why she hasn't divorced you yet? maybe she wants to keep you around as a back up plan if her engagement falls through. If so, this is very selfish of her and it wouldn't be a good sign if she did get back with you under such conditions.

try to keep busy and stay healthy to facilitate the process of moving on. If you're unemployed and have a lot of time on your hands, get involved in volunteer work. The more idle time you have, the more depressed you can become and your mind will get stuck on dwelling on your ex wife.
