divorce and living together

[Bumbed]

Hi
I was wondering if a person could file for divorce and live together in the same home?
I live in Massachusetts and it's both of our house. I don't want to leave but am thinking of filing.
I heard they send couples to counseling. I'm thinking this could be the only way to get the help my husband and I need.
HE refuses to see a counselor.
Please HELP!

My response:

Yes, you can still live together while the action is pending - - hell, you can do so even afterwards if that's what you two want to do. You and he can be "roommates".

No, you cannot force someone into counseling if they don't want it. Despite the fact that the court "offers" counseling, not even the court can "order" someone into marital counseling.

Good luck.
