Does separated actually mean "separated"?

Even talking about divorce. The only way she found out is coincidently his cousin got a job where she works and saw a picture of him on her desk at work.

They were so serious that she had a picture of him on her desk? That poor woman.

Even if he was completely single, why would you want a man who only gives you dribs and drabs of his time? And won’t talk to you about an important issue you bring up? But yes, he is either still married or potentially balancing a number of women at the same time or has some other secret life he doesn’t want you to know about.

Run, and then get to a therapist to work on your own self esteem and boundaries.

I cannot think of a scenario where this would be ok. Sorry OP. I saw all the negative responses and wanted to come up with a reasonable alternative scenario but PP who said the even if he is single comment is right.

Don't date anyone who says they are "separated." It's best to wait for the actual divorce. They may actually be separated, they may not actually be separated, or they may decide they like having two partners who don't know about each other.

Why is everyone assuming it’s a guy? 100% OP is the guy

lol. Pretty sure my ex advertised us as separated but living together a year before that was true. Then saying divorce started and was slow long before it did. Run and know you dodged a bullet.

Your "great person" could be stringing along multiple people.

Why are you dating someone for over a year who has not taking you to their physical address? I wonder if they told you their real name?

I'm so sorry you are in this position.

[Anonymous]

OP could be a man who is dating a woman whose husband works all the time.

How old is this guy and can you give his first initial? I think a lot of us wives with sketchy husbands are wondering if it is our husband you are talking about.
