Dear Jen:

You do have a plan then. Is he aware of this plan and did the two of you discuss all parts of it, so to prepare and plan best you can financially and emotionally?

A financial plan would to agree on how the two of you will handle finances while you look for work and throughout possible six months of unemployment. This has to be clear and agreed on ahead of time, considering all possibilities.

Example of an emotional plan: maybe joining a gym there and attending it daily, while unemployed, and while he is working, so to give you the routine you will need and stress relief.
