C- Great, what about you?
W- No, I'm done, it's over and I want him to know and accept it.
C- Aaaah, well it sounds like perhaps a trial separation would be a good idea so the two of you can think about things.
W- YES YES YES how soon can we do this? When can he move out?

Look at the timeline in my signature. I've been here a while. I've seen ^^^this^^^ happen more times than I can count, including in my own sitch.



This is so good. In my sitch, I think the reason it worked, is because while my W wanted S and eventually D, she wasn't ready to rip that bandaid off. I also had a C that didn't believe in S....or D for that matter. Which is why if you insist on doing this I highly recommend a faith-based MC.
