It helped a lot! After he left for our "trial separation", I changed the locks, pack his sh!t and send him a draft of the divorce.
I didn't want the drama and the confrontation, so that was best for me.

Separation in a marriage is the first step in dissolving it. If you can't live together then go your separate ways. Bouncing back and forth only causes confusion in a relationship. If you are going to make a marriage work then you stay together and work it out. Running away from each other doesn't solve anything. As far as the excuse that you need to separate to try and clear your minds or try to determine if you really love each other, that should be determined before you get married not after. If those doubts are there, then you shouldn't be married at all.

separation does not help, separation as in moving out is the end of the marriage, the end of working it out. separation is usually wanted because one of the partners has an affair with someone else going on. if the partner leaves they are leaving because their affair partner is giving ultimatums, and they have to pick either them or their spouse. just an excuse to get out of the marital home without alot of problems with the spouse who wants to work it out. separation means the leaving spouse has made up their mind, and doesn't want to be married anymore.as when people are trying to work it out, u need them there, communicating trying but if they leave they are leaving for a reason, to be with their affair.and usually the other spouse doesn't even have a clue as to what is going on, and innocently believes that a separation will help it, and the spouse who left is just upset, and will come back after they have had some time to think. but they usually never come back.

Once you are separated it's a 90% chance that you will divorce.
For me it was a relief to have the wife move out - I served her with papers a month later after I found she slept with half the men in Houston.

For some it makes the marriage stronger, for other's in enforces their need/want to get out of the marriage.

It made us realize how badly we wanted out of the marriage.

Depends. My hubby and I were seperated for 9 months. But we were amicable and realized how much we love eachother and want to work this out...now we are back together.
