Dear Jwalker:

Greetings. No, it is unlikely that your marriage can be annulled. Instead, you must separate and wait the one year separation period to get divorced. Best of luck.

So here it goes, I like many others never thought they would be here. I have only been married for 6 months, I know its sad. My husband travels constantly with work and I was promised that if he ever started traveling too much, to the point it was affecting our relationship he would make changes. So 3 months in and only seeing my husband for 4 days out of a month, I explained to him that I was unhappy, and this wasn’t going to work" It always endend in a huge argument and him doing nothing different. I remind you I was not 'allowed to have friends over, go to dinner with friends etc". So I told him 2 weeks ago I wasn’t in love with him anymore. I have seen him 20 days out of 6 months and there is no intimacy when he comes home. I feel like I have failed but I can’t live a married, but alone controlled life. What are my options? Can this be annulled? Do we have to be separated for a year, or are there shorter options? Thanks in Advance
