>> I want to divorce but I heard you have to be living separately for sometime before filing?

That is correct. It applies to both Irreconcilable Differences and Separation

>> Is this true, and if so is there no way around this?

Yes, there is. Adultery.

“... adultery exists when one spouse rejects the other by entering into a personal intimate relationship with any other person, irrespective of the specific sexual acts performed; the rejection of the spouse coupled with out-of-marriage intimacy constitutes adultery.”

So, if your husband had an out-of-marriage sexual relationship with another person, you don't have to wait.
