You would be well advised to consult with a Virginia attorney who is knowledgeable regarding
the law governing domestic relations in the Commonwealth. This person will be able to advise you as to how under your particular circumstances
you can avoid being charged with desertion/abandonment and how your share of the marital assets can be best preserved and safeguarded for you in the event there is a final dissolution of the marriage.
Re: if i leave do i lose
Packing up and leave? Not advisable. The answer to your question is not so simple. I would need to take a look at your entire situation: children, property (who purchased what and when), respective incomes, reason for leaving and so forth. Desertion and abandonment certainly could come into play... so I would for sure meet with an attorney before doing anything.
Good luck to you.
