Renegotiate, try mediation, hire an attorney - you have several options. What exactly is he disagreeing with?

He does not want a divorce, and because in Virginia you have to be separated first before getting a divorce, he's trying to block the first step. Meanwhile I'm trying to start the separation as soon as possible to protect myself financially because he's gambled most of our money away. We don't have children. Can I just go find another place to live? Will that be seen as desertion?

Who cares? If you want to be separated and kids are not involved, then move out.
