Before filing for divorce, must I file for legal separation?
Full Question:
After nearly 13 years of marriage, I am considering a divorce from my husband. He is a good man, and provides for me well, but we always seem to be on two different walks of life.
My question to you is: before filing for divorce must I legally file for separation? If so, how long must the separation period be before continuing to divorce? We have not had sex or even slept together in the same room for the last 5 years. Does that count toward any kind of separation?
