Your marriage is in crisis, and you've done everything you can think of to save it.
You last option would be a separation, but will it help? There are two types of marital separations - legal or informal.
When you are thinking of an informal separation, you will both agree that time away from each other is best, and from there you will try to work things out.
When you think of having a legal separation, it is final.
It requires lawyers, just like a divorce.
Separation should be your absolute last option when trying to save your marriage.
This is a last resort - only after you have tried everything else should you even think of a separation.
Marital help comes in many forms.
Just to mention a few: marital counseling (which can get expensive), friends and family, and ebooks written by professionals that help couples solve their differences at home.
A marital separation might help your marriage.
It will allow the both of you to know what it feels like to be apart from each other.
This in itself brings many couples back together.
With a separation, you ARE still married - you can always go back to each other, without involving lawyers or courts.
During a separation, you will have time apart to think about your situation.
Living together, you can't find time alone, and every time you see each other you could start fighting, just because the tension is unbearable.
This time alone will make you both look at the situation with a lot of thought.
Thought that won't be hindered by stress.
You will both be able to clearly think.
Even if only one of you wants to try, saving your marriage IS possible! Remind each other the reasons you got married to begin with.
Also, remind each other that divorce is final.
Separation is not.
Make this your opportunity to make things right, once and for all.
