Husband moved out with no warning

I was out of state and my husband texted me and said he would be moved out by the time I was back. I was unaware anything was bad enough that he would be at this point. We hadn’t had any recent arguments, nothing was too out of the ordinary. I tried asking questions, he wouldn’t respond. I got nowhere. Sure enough I got home and almost all of his things are gone. I don’t know where he is, why he left, or what’s going on. His family and friends won’t tell me anything.

So far it’s been almost a month with no contact and he hasn’t filed for divorce. I’m stuck with a household’s load of bills on one income while he’s off doing whatever or whoever. I have a meeting with a lawyer but it’s not for a while.

I really want to be petty and force him to file for divorce because he‘s the coward who left like he did. Are there downfalls to me doing that? Is there anything I should be doing while I wait for this meeting with my lawyer?

For context - we have been married less than 5 years and the only thing we share is a mortgage.

Any advice from anyone with experience in this area is appreciated. I’m over it and it’s only beginnin.
