Separation
The period of living "separate and apart" can include time when you were both living in the same home. However, the "conjugal" quality of your relationship — the ''marriage-like'' quality of your relationship — must have ended. In general, this means that you must have stopped sleeping together, eating meals together, doing chores for each other, and going out together as a couple.
Under section 8(3) of the ''[[Divorce Act]]'', spouses can live together in an attempt to reconcile and resume married life for up to 90 days during the one-year period. However, if the couple wind up living together for a total period of more than 90 days, the clock resets and the spouses must wait for a new one-year period to end before asking for a divorce order.
