Q: I have been living with a man I call my husband for several years now. We have three children together aged between three and nine years. However, we have never formally married nor has he paid any dowry. Our life together has been good until last year when I discovered that he has been unfaithful to me. We have since had endless disagreements. He has repeatedly told me that if I am not content I should move out but leave the children behind. What are my legal rights in the circumstances especially since I am not financially stable? What would my fate be if he decided to marry another woman?
