Have finally decided to pull the trigger and bail out from a marriage to a serious female narcissist/ Avoidant. Three separate, very costly, attempts at reconciliation have yielded zero results. Will I be forced to go thru Kantor Agama, as I converted to Islam, or renounce and pursue through civil court?

Which would ensure equal division of community property (house completely paid off but only in wife’s name).?

Anyone have any experience in this vein???

Yep.

After a long few years of hell, she said she wanted a divorce (again). As I was WNI this time, I didn't have visa issues to consider.

She was shite with the kids and there was no house to care about, so I agreed to giving her 100 million (full stop) but only if the kids remained with me.

As any good mum would do, she sold out the kids for cash.

If the house is in her name, you'll probably lose it. If you can show you paid, that might well cover any cash she might claim from you.

If you had a Muslim wedding, it's a Muslim court.
