Staying married may have long-term benefits. You can elicit much more sympathy from friends over a bad marriage than you ever can from a good divorce. - P. J. O'Rourke

    • splitter definitely talked to him but depends what the purpose of the separation is and if you have children... do you have kids? and it the purpose to get space and perspective and then come back to the table and figure out how you can put your marriage back together? 10 years ago

      • Tiffany True, it really does depend on what is going and why the separation occurred. I spoke with my husband often; but that turned out to be a mistake. I was in a domestic violence relationship, and no contact with him was actually the best avenue. At the same time, most separations are in order to work things out and then come back together. Therefore, withe the needed break of separation, less frequent contact at first, while gradually increasing that as comfort levels allow, can work well. Engaging counseling help is optimal for working on the tough issues and finding true resolution. 10 years ago
