Hi. I am currently in a marriage but I am not at all happy in it because my spouse has severe alcoholic dependency issues and as it usually goes, mental and physical abuse is a part of the equation. It was a love a marriage but I don’t even like her anymore. I am suggesting her to go to a rehab but I also want to divorce her. She is an earning individual. She earns around 80k a month and I earn around 1 lpm. All the liabilities are on my name so she’s financially secure. I have a feeling she might not consent for a divorce. What options do I have? I want the least messy way out of this marriage. I don’t want to ruin my life further. Thanks In Advance.

Vipasanna jao bro
And, yar things develop slowly, to this stage, suggesting anymore would require knowing you, and your wife a bit more, personally
First think financially, kya karna hai
Start staying separately more often, vipasanna course, stay in ashramas (art of living has some amazing ashramas)

NAL
If you have already made up your mind and are looking for a divorce.
It would not be easy if she does not consent.
That means if you cannot file under mutual consent, you need to file under specific grounds.
Alcoholism in itself will not be a ground, it would be under grounds such as cruelty.
So, regardless of what you eventually decide to do (after obviously taking good legal counsel) – its most important that you start documenting and gathering all sorts of evidence of unreasonable and cruel behaviour.

If her alcohol abuse can be proven then if she rejects rehab or any court mandated medical help then you can get divorce.

Least messy way would be divorce by mutual consent but as you said you spouse has issues so ig it would be hard to mutually part ways. You will have to give some alimony, and if you file for divorce then you may or may not face false allegations and the physical abuse might not help, moreover as she is a woman the authorities are inclined to side with her even with her issues and this all may create problems for not only you but your whole family. Imo you should try to make her quite but if she still doesn’t do it, then you should definitely see a REAL lawyer just to be on safe side so that yk what your options are.
