3 years ago, l had to flee my home to get back to Canada because my husband in the USA based on his lawyer, the police and the VA representative, all telling me my life was in danger due to my husband's mood and what he might do and that was snap. l had a matter of min. to get clothes out of a window and leave telling him l was going to take the cat and dog to the vet's office.
l left Tennessee and never looked back. My husband tried every which way to get me to just cross over the border and based on the Canadian police, they said not to talk to him, no more communication and whatever l did not to cross the border.
My husband then hired someone to come and find me where l was living at my Mother's and where l worked. l then went to the Police who warned this man to stay away from me and leave me be. l never pressed any charges.
l moved away and started my life over again and for now l have not been found and it is going into year number 4.
What l would like to know is the abandonment of marriage act, does that mean after 7 yrs of not being down south, our marriage is over as it clearly shows that neither of us are together anymore so we don't need to get a divorce???
