It almost sounds like you should be divorced, so both of you can move forward, then reconcile if things turn around in the future.
But, being married and acting single, not living with each other, is not a marriage..
Thoughts?

Correct. Neither are a "marriage".

But being in the FZ certainly doesn't lead to reconcilation. Most WAS want to remain friends with their LBS. For me, I took that option off table immediately
I got the "I hope we can still be friends" comment. To which I said ""No, being friends would mean I wasn't moving forward with my life. That isn't fair to me." She never brought it up again.
