My friend received a separation request from her DH via an online "lawyer document" program.
 
From what I can tell, there have been some issues in the past and she said that she did run her mouth over the weekend, in response to a reaction he had, which struck a nerve in him ...
 
I'm at a loss for her. What are your thoughts?! What do I tell her?
 
10+Yrs marriage. I think he's being hasty. 4951

Separation papers online instead of a divorce petition prepared by hired counsel is significant. How long have there been this level of issues? How "bad" did she run her mouth? Could she have threatened to end things and he is calling her bluff?
 
Seems like he might be leaving a slight crack in he door before shutting it completely, but I would not take this move lightly or dismiss it. Sounds like it could have been his final warning shot.
 
They both need to get serious about trying to salvage this relationship with counseling or get serious about putting it to rest. 4951

@ctl74:
Where does your friend live? There is no such thing as a legal separation in Texas. Either way, she needs to consult with an attorney asap before signing and/or agreeing to anything.
 
By the time people reach the divorce stage, they have usually been mentally and emotionally divorced for quite some time. It's usually not one incident. Your friend may not be disclosing the entire story to you. 10 plus years of marriage.....they've probably been "divorced" for at least 5.

Does she need some 1-on-1 counseling? Emoticon
 
On a serious note, though. Some people hit a stage when enough is enough. It sounds as though he hit his. If she wants to keep things together, they need counseling, plain and simple.
 
I wish them the best.

As a friend be there for her when she ask for you , do not voice any opinions one way or the other . Stay out of the scuffle between husband & wife , it's none of your business . Even if your opinion is asked for you should never , ever give it . It will always come back to haunt you in the long run . Let your friend settle this with her DH , you have no concept of what brought all this on or for how long it has been coming to this . Just be a good friend when she ask you to be her shoulder to cry on , but keep your mouth shut & your opinions to your self & you will remain a good friend  when it is all over.  4951

Some (alot of) guys can't stand a mouthy woman all the time. Wish her luck she'll find another. 4951

Tell her to get a lawyer. Tell her to take money out of accounts before he does. She should put it in an account and not touch the money except to pay the bills. She needs to make sure he can't draw money out. She needs to look out for own interest. Good luck to her. 4951
