I supported my husband through his schooling to become a teacher but he quit after two years. He also battled with alcoholism and I supported him through this also. However, he has not gone back to work. We have no children together, but I do have a 20 year old daughter in college from another marriage that I help support while she is is school. My husband is very manipulative and has manipulated me throughout our marriage to allow him to not work but I have had enough. I am scared of what he will get in alimony however in the settlement. The home is in my name only, but we have a car in both our names which I am willing to give to him since it is older and I need a more reliable vehicle for my work. He is 56 and I am 55.
