In the remotest parts of the universe, how far can you be away from everything and anything.
I'm thinking of going there to get away from the wife.

You must visualize space as a very vast place. In your question you discuss huge distances from the nearest atom...
No, I feel very certain that there is no place in space that would qualify as fitting this situation. Space has lots of drifting molecules of gas and tiny particles of dust floating, or flying all about. Tons of dust fall onto the Earth each day from out in space.
If you want to escape from your wife, you will need a new name, a stash of money to last you for at least 18 months, and some suitable maps. Do not take your car, or your credit cards. Ride the bus to the new city where you plan to live. Get a job under your new name. Rent a cheap room under that name. Make up a social security card number. Then live there for 6 months and do this all over again.

According to latest theories from the Astronomical boffins the Universe is expanding at an excelerated rate. Therefore logic tells us that at some point all atoms will be at an infinite distance apart, this then leads to the question will matter exist in the future and maybe there will be another Big Bang.

No one knows, but my guess is there is some lower limit on density in the Universe, and it would imossile to be more than 1 light year away from "any" particle.
however above some upper limit the gravtational pull would cause it to attract other particles and would eventually created a star-sloar system etc

Tiny subatomic particles actually phase in and out of existence throughout the universe so you can't predict where some will appear.

If your that far away from any particles i believe you would be considered to be in empty space. There fore you would be out of the universe! Good luck to get there

not in the universe because the big bang threw out atoms and particles and anything outside the debris is not part of the universe

No. That would be considered a perfect vacuum which does not exist, especially when you take things like dark matter into considerarion.

I think you can be a meter away, maybe even a kilometer, but not light years. Depending on density.

There is somewhere less that 10,000 lightyears away I go to get away from the missus, its the pub!!! - I was there tonight infact! hehe

There's no such thing as 'empty space'.
Go to Wyoming to get away from wifey.
