Re: separation
You are still married, so you can still commit adultery and suffer the consequences of same. The way to avoid that is to have a Decree of Separate Maintenance issued, and you should certainly discuss that issue with an attorney.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
