Answer:
In Florida, a couple can be considered separated even if they live in the same household, as long as they have no emotional or sexual ties. Legal separation does not require formal filing; it is based on the couple's behavior and intentions. If both parties agree they are living separately in terms of their relationship, they may be viewed as separated under Florida law.
