[quote=Anonymous]This indicates you can file on account of cruelty:

Cruelty is not just physical harm, but may take other forms as well. Angry words, coarse and abusive language, humiliation and other malicious annoyances are considered cruelty. Cruelty can be the sum total of consistent emotional abuse. In Virginia, spouses who have endured such emotional abuse where they suffer from anxiety, depression, weight loss or other psychological harms have been granted divorce based on cruelty. For example, someone who is constantly humiliated by their spouse or  who has been shown coldness or indifference from their spouse may fulfill the definition of cruelty. However, rudeness, an occasional temper, or an occasional refusal of sex, where it does not endanger bodily harm, will not rise to the level of cruelty under Virginia law. Also, adultery that exposes a spouse to potential STDs may be considered cruelty in the state of Virginia.
