Sure that's a possibility but its hardly worth assuming that's what's in her head without knowing. Whether or not the OP has psych issues or not, its mute without trying to know exactly where she is coming from as much as possible.
As for taking precautions, sure, but regarding a private investigator and recording everything right now because she says she wants a separation, I'd leave that to the paranoid schizophrenics at this point.
A whole lot of friends have been through a divorce. They never saw it coming. Turns out the woman was planning it for over a year in most cases, plotting, planning, some of them even running out and buying a new car on credit card and parking it at a friends house (husband has to pay this as well).
So you bet he should start preparing.
Some women do plan it out. Happened to my brother. My two brothers, I, and my dad left one weekend for a crabbing trip. My brother kissed his wife goodbye and nobody thought anything was wrong. We come back from the trip and the cops show up at my Dad's place a few hours later, to hand my brother a restraining order to stay away from the kids because the wife accused him of beating them. that's how she started the divorce process.
It turns out the accusation was all crap. Today, my brother is self employed and runs his own business, while his ex-wife smokes crack, lives with a new drunken husband that drinks a fifth a day, and the 3 kids live in a trailer so small that one kid has to sleep in the living room. And guess what - the court thought the kids would be better off with their mom, even though all of them say they want to live with their dad.
Women are as confusing as the US legal system
