How long has everyone been separated from their spouse? I hear stories of where a spouse has not heard from their spouse in 1,2,3 , etc. years then all of a sudden they get a call or their spouse shows up at their house.

Hi bfa

I've been separated for nearly 6 months but she only moved out about 3 months ago.

Still have daily phone contact due to calling to say goodnight to D and see one another once or twice a week to exchange D.

Hope you're doing ok.

As of the 8th, we've been separated 19 months. We used to talk almost daily because we'd talk with the kids at night to say goodnight. (50-50 custody) About a month or so ago she quit calling at night and I think the girls really miss those calls. I in turn did the same thing.

Just two weeks ago she told me that she's told her attorney not to file. This and a few other things over the last 6 months have opened my eyes to her mild MLC. The big thing is, can she overcome what seems to be pride and look or at least consider rebuilding our relationship and our family. I don't know but I gave a vow that was from the heart and I intend to hold to that vow, so I stand and have stood for 19 months to this point and I'll continue to stand.

Hi

We've been separated 5 months. He moved into his parents place at the beginning of Feb this year. We have a lot of contact. We see each other everyday and communicate through phone calls and text messgaes. We work together and have a D6.

He filed for D a month ago but I'm still hopeful.

Hey

My h and I have been separated 8 months. We saw each other once a week until a month ago when we went on holiday (separately) for 3 weeks and I found out about a potential ea. When I got back he said he could no longer do this and I haven't seen him since. That was when I discovered DB - I wish I had done so sooner! He wants to now meet up to discuss what is going to happen.

I'm still hopeful though... I love him. Posting here is an excellent form of support.

I am the baby in this bunch. We have only been separated for 2 months as a result of the bomb. Prior to that we, were together one month after he returned from a 6 month military-related separation. H is about to leave in Sept for at least another 6 months.

Been separated a year and 2 weeks. Stayed in contact at my request but as he is still undecided I have pulled back and we havent had contact now for 3 weeks-longest time so far. What an exhausting business this marriage saving is!
