Divorce at 66?

I've been married 33 years to a man who hasn't touched me in 25. He literally hasn't kissed or hugged me in a quarter century. He lives in a separate room and does almost nothing other than cutting grass. He only ever worked part time and we made the same amount.
I pay bills, manage household repairs, do all food shopping and cooking (though he often eats out alone). I'm scared to be completely alone but I'm tired of living with someone who won't contribute anything. He comes along on vacations but I have to do all the planning.

Just seen the date. Why do these old threads get ressurected?

It depends entirely on your financial situation he is entitled to half of marital assets if you divorce including any pension you may have.

Make a plan before you commit yourself allowing for legal costs if it’s contested.

Your still young enough to make a new life and have some fun. You deserve peace of mind and to live the life you want . Good luck for the future
