From what I've observed on the board, it doesn't work like that. It's common for people, usually husbands, to say that they "can't" detach until after they are living separately . . . and then when that time comes, they still struggle to detach.
Detaching is hard work. It means learning to redirect your thoughts and control your emotions. There is no shortcut.
Based on everyone's responses, I shouldn't move out in attempts to make detaching easier.
