Is divorce the only option Is divorce the only option

3 years ago

I have been married for the past 15 years. We have a daughter of 14 years. She has never been too hospitable with my sister who visits us and my father whose house we stay in. Since 2018 she has started blaming me that I am planning for a second child without her knowledge, which is not the case. We started sleeping separately. But she went off to her father's place on and off and the duration of her stay there increased as days went by. Since 18th March, she has again went to her father's place with all her belongings and have not answered my calls since. I visited her in Sept and she told me she is not willing to come back. She has not been enquiring about her daughter even. She had always failed to pursue her duties as wife or a mother. We had several altercations earlier due to these.
What shall I do now?
