eyeswideopen agony auntUnfortunately there is very little legal recourse when two unmarried people live together and share finances. Try to figure out the amounts that belong to only you and those that belong to only him. Then split the shared ones down the middle. Hopefully you can get out of this with as little financial pain as possible. Good luck.

mommyofthree agony auntThat is a tough one, it is hard to predict how someone will react in this type of situation. He may go out of his way to make sure you get screwed. I am hoping that the things in your name are the things you hold near and dear to you. If you are going to leave him, I would call all of the things in my name and switch the billing adress to wherever you are moving to. Also, if you have direct deposit with your job, stop it immediately, and if you have a joint bank accoutn take your money and start a new one, with out him on it. Be smart and fair and hopefully he will to. Good luck.
