we were separated for 7mths. Since you guys have kids and prob some common property it is a contested divorce, it can't be done without mediation and a court appearance.
Let him know that you want to be there for him, you dont' need to be a mute around him, act like his friend, be yourself, I know it sounds corny but it is very true, just relax, pray to God and just be yourself, ask him if he'd like to go out during the week if you can get a sitter, at least once a week, to reconnect. I know w/kids a couple tends to forget to cherish and make the R grow.
I know it is hard, don't initiate sex for now, be content w/holding his hand... if he lets you, begin small, he can't have sex w/you now if he feels no connection, please give him space.
Be not afraid...I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten Joel2
