No, if you are legally separated, he has no hold over you.

Your spouse can not forbid you from being in another relationship. However the spouse has a right to suggest you not be in one until you are divorced. Cheating is wrong and I think a spouse would have a right to suggest for example to not bring the homewrecker or the person that helped ruin the marriage around the children.
So many people are cheating on their spouses these days. What is going on?

From a legal standpoint you should not even consider another relationship until you are legally separated. You do not have to be divorced, the legal separation signifies that you intend to dissolve your marriage. To proceed before the paperwork is signed could get you in a lot of legal trouble. All your soon-to-be ex has to do is hire a private detective and catch you together and you can lose big time, especially if you are the female. I know this one from personal experience...my ex told me he did not care if I started dating so I did. Then he had me followed and I lost $600 a month in alimony because I was committing "adultery"...regardless of the fact that he left here to go shack up with another chick!
Another reason not to start another relationship right now is because you need time to learn and grow from this experience. I would spend that "date money" on some counseling, just to talk things out and help learn from mistakes that might have been made during the marriage. Rebound relationships have a way of not working out somhow anyway. Give yourself time to heal.

He can't forbid you, but if he does, it's because he's hurt to see you with someone else, he may still love you for that matter. Also you shouldn't be in another relationship until your divorce is FINAL. You should give yourself some time to yourself, jumping into a new relationship could cause you some unnecessary stress, especially while dealing with divorce. GOOD LUCK!

Yes until the moment you are officially divorced you are legally married . You are required to follow the legal conditions of the marriage contract that you both signed. One of those conditions is not to commit acts of adultery.
If you do chose to commit an act of adultery while still married and your spouse wants to be an SOB about they can negatively effect the conditions of the divorce.

No your spouse can not forbid you from having a relationship when your marriage has already broken and coming apart.

No. Your spouse can never forbid you from doing anything, even if its seeing someone else while you're still married.

no, of course not. he cannot control your dating, your friends, where you work or anything in your life. just as you cannot forbid him to see anyone else.
there is no "law against adultery". unless you have some kind of agreement in a "prenup" that might affect you monetarily or something, then you might to keep that agreement until you're legally divorced. otherwise, you are free to live as though you never married.

Nobody in the world can forbid you of anything,you make your own choices.But I would just be careful b/c she may try to use it against you in court,saying you committed adultery,so just keep it on the down low!!

Yes, but you are in violation of the law with or with out there permission. It's called adultery.

You are still married until the divorce is final.
