You divorce file divorce and if it is with mutual consent then u will get 6 months legal separation. So far staying with friend will have no legal consequences coz finally you are staying with friend as err sharing accommodation with friend can not create legal complications provided no illicit or illegal relationship is established.

Yes..
You can stay away as well as you can file for divorce..
If he is also ready to give divorce then you both can file for Divorce by Mutual Consent.
If he is not ready then you can file Petition for Divorce against him on appropriate grounds..
Hope this helps !!
