I was married when I was 18. And now I'm 25 and wanted annulment.

My previous relationship when I was 18 didn't lasts long because we're both young and naive. It was supposed to be a secret marriage that only my mother knows. Now he's nowhere to be found. It's been 7 years of no communication with him. I have a new life now with my current boyfriend who wants to settle down with me. I told him already about my previous marriage when I was 18. And now we are both seeking legal advice because we really want to start a family that's 100% legal. Pls help me. Thanks!

Hi youngtifanny,

You need to annul your first marriage before you can validly marry your current boyfriend.

Filing a petition for annulment of marriage is not that simple. There are grounds that need to be present. Most of the annulment cases filed is based on psychological incapacity.

(nag iisang anak kasi) then this girl run away and live alone with her daughter. and until now. nothings changed to this man. hes agrad of education corx and a liscens teacher. but hes current work is trafic patola. it seems like he really dnt have a plan to change or even dnt have any plans to stand on hes own. this guy is living with hes parents house. a lot of reasons why this girl left him long time ago. and according to her. they just go to cityhall and do the marriage. no seminars and no cenomar. thoug they both single that time. then its almost a decade pass after she left this guy and no cmunication. and it seems like nothings change to this guy. this girls wants a legal advice what to do for her to be legaly separated and end evrything between them. what grounds she can use to file anulment? is it posible for physcho. inapacity? or may chance ba na void ang kasal nila? almost a decade na lumipas. malakas pba ang kaso nung lalake if ever he moves againts this girl if ever this girl setledown with some1?
