I don’t even want revenge, I just want my life back.

Hi everyone,
I’ve recently left an abusive marriage. After I left him (it was not easy as he took everything from me and isolated me) he promised he’ll change, begged me to give him another chance, and all the bullshit that I did not fall for (thankfully, cause he didn’t change)

Fast forward 5 months later and I want to file for divorce and he’s refusing to pay for it, even though I paid for him A LOT more than the little money it’ll cost to file the divorce. I can pay for it but it’s a matter of principle.

It feels like he just wants to be argumentative and mean, he says it’s unnecessary to file for divorce since we got married in a different country.
I’m so tired, I was a good wife to him and he abused me. I’m trying to move on with my life, I’m working on things with my therapist, why can’t he just not make this anymore difficult?

I am lost and I don’t know what to do anymore, I don’t even want to hex because I know he’ll have a miserable life regardless. I just want him to let me go.

My question is, would a cord cutting help in this situation? I don’t know what to do and I would appreciate some guidance.
