What you say rings true here. I just kind of feel like since he really wants the separation or divorce (I believe so he can pursue this OW who doesn't want a physical relationship while he's married), I'm not sure how much I shoud be taking the lead on facilitating it. I mean, if he draws up an agreement and asks me about it, that's one thing - certainly, I will need to make sure it's to the family's advantage. But if he doesn't come to me about it, maybe I should continue with the in-house separation until he does and not rush into what feels like the next step toward a divorce.
