Thank you so much this is great, we were together for 7 years but we’ve been married nearly 4 so it’s considered a short marriage. My first child is from a previous relationship and I didn’t want anymore but he wanted a baby, I am in the middle of my studies and wanted to wait but he wanted one so now my qualification is delayed etc and I am now raising my two kids on my training salary so yes I think asking for maintenance support is something to consider especially now my individual costs are now more as I have to rely on wrap around care and holiday clubs etc - this is great thank you If anyone has any more things to consider that would be great thanks
I don't know if you can ask for a car, but I think it's an important thing to have for your child.
You can ask for alimony depending on the state and how long you’ve been together, sometimes it’s awarded long enough for you to get career training or a degree. You can really ask for anything such as not allowing any new gfs to move in with kids unless it’s been a relationship of 1year or more, or ask for equity in the house, ask for a portion of any 401ks (technically the 401k is yours too) - make a list of everything he has because if y’all married, it’s yours too. You can also ask for reliable transportation in your name
