I was married for some thirty eight years to a wonderful woman.
I had everything a man could want but over time, the challenges that I had to deal with wore me down and my ex-wife and I grew slowly apart in our relationship. Like u, we were arguing all the time about some of the most mundane things. I became angry at her and she began to love me less and less.She even went so far as to say to me how I would live alone on my own. That really hurt me as a man and was a clear indication that our marraige was in deep trouble.

Anyway, On your points regarding what u should do I offer the followign advice:

U say...
Do I stay and see what happens?
My answer...
If you're not happy, leave.
U say...
Do I move in the guest room for a while?
My answer...
Yes. Being in the presence of each other will only make matters worse.
U say...
Do I pack my bags and leave for a friends house?
My answer...
If u trust your friend then go for it.
And my answer to ur last question...
Yes, file for a legal separation for insurance purposes. That's a necessity.

Hope this helps u and good luck either way.,

Do I pack my bags and leave for a friends house?
Do I file for a legal separation for the time being to keep insurance?
