There are no pros to a separation/divorce.
Both are financially and emotionally draining.

I have not been in this situation before, but I would say that seperation is for couples that think they can reconcile down the line or who don't believe in divorce. If you want a divorce - you are ready for this to be over and nothing can change your mind - then just go with divorce. He will take the news differently, depending upon how you deliver it. If you tell him what a prick he is and you can't stand the sight of him or tell him that you find you just can't deal with married life (that he is a fine husband, you just don't like this lifestyle) he will react differently I imagine. It's often best to talk about it as you start to think about it, so there is time for a compromise to be made, so there is a chance to save the relationship. I mean, marriage is a life long committment, and while it doesn't always work out, it seems we owe each other the respect to say "This isn't what I want" while there is still time to make changes, before we have lost our love for our spouse - you know what I mean. I know in my case there were a few times early on in my marriage where I had to tell my husband that "This is not what I signed up for" or "this is not the way I want to live my life" to convey the point to him that we were reaching a critical point if we could not make changes. We were able to make changes - and even address health issues that made the normal stresses of marriage and child rearing much harder to bear than they should be. Peace!

Separation is cheaper and you can get back together. You can use that to scare your spouse if you really don't want a divorce. With divorce it's expensive and takes a long time and it's done and over with. Divorce is final though. They can't claim you on their taxes or have access to anything that's yours once it's over with. With separation you can't marry again until you divorce.

Simple, in a seperation youre still married to one another but living apart, still responsible for each others actions and in a divorce the marriage is done, not responsible for anyone but you and now have the ability to freely move on to a new life. Seperation=still married, Divorce=freedom

Divorce allows you to make a final ending and move on and heal. Separation allows you to think about if that's what you really want.

With seperation there is still the vain, lingering, pathetic hope of reconcilliation that drags on and on.
Those are the cons too.

Why don't you be more specific in what you are asking...are you asking about the legal or emotional stuff?
