Sex During Seperation

good question i have a similar situation i have already started proceedings to divorce my wife. Last night i took her to dinner to talk to her about a legal separation until the divorce is final one thing led to another and i wound up sleeping with her. How would this effect the proceedings that have already begun. I filed restraining orders in court on Friday and this happened Friday night. I love my wife but i cannot forgive the affairs which have been numerous. Please respond i am scared i will talk to my lawyer on Monday put am trying to get a heads up on how big of a mistake is it that i made

Think about the legal and emotional ramifications of having sex with

your spouse. If you live in a state that requires a legal separation for a

certain period of time before you can file for divorce, having sex with

your spouse can set you back legally. It will cause you to have to start

the separation period over from the beginning. In addition, if you are

still emotionally attached to your spouse sex can give you false hope of

reconciliation.

A legal separation is not a divorce. It is not an opportunity to go out

and become involved in a new relationship. It is the opportunity to heal,

reflect on your part in the marital problems and to learn how to live as

a single parent if you have children. Before becoming involved in a new

relationship you should also consider what it will mean legally during

divorce negotiations.
