my wife out of nowhere said she wanted to separate um came out of nowhere our marriage definitely had

its ups and downs we've always worked through it uh some other things i found out but But we're living apart right now. And about two

weeks into this, she split up the finances completely without even telling me. So my question is,

how do I best navigate this through the separation since we do? We are still legally and biblically

married. How do we navigate handling finances right now?

You separate them as if you're divorced.

Okay.

And then if there is an answer to prayer and reconciliation and you get back together, you

recombine them.

Okay.

You have direct deposit on your payroll?

Yes, and so does she.

Yeah, go open a new checking account and have your check to send to your checking account.

But the thing that I don't, that I'm worried of is she can see what I'm doing, but I can't

see what she's doing.

Not if you do that.

Yeah, she has access to my account.

Not anymore.

You're going to go close that and open a new account.

Because it's a, because it's a joint, it's a, it was a joint account.

Close it.
