I am beginning to feel like I should let him move out. Not that I have the power to stop it anyway, but both times he's asked for a separation, I've said "no" and he's stayed. I am beginning to think that maybe it's the way to go. Let him miss me a bit, give OW some time to turn into the nag I'm not. I was trying to protect the kids, but nothing is happening, we are at a standstill. Any advice on that one?
Anyone have an opinion that separation is helpful or not? I have been reading about controlled separation, where the spouses agree up front to certain terms regarding duration, finances, dating, and agree not to file for the duration. I think it's something I'm going to propose to H after this next (and final of the summer) family vacation. Any opinions?
