Spousal support is only available in a divorce/legal separation. You may want to consult with an attorney if you and she commingled your finances during the relationship resulting in her leaving the relationship with assets.

She purchased a home 5 years ago. We have gone or seperate ways. She now says I still owe her x amount each month be cause we lived together for so long. I entered that relationship with only a truck and a job. I left with only the money in my checking account and my clothes. I don't see where I am responsible for anything. She can't afford the house without my income even though she gets $1600.00 a month alimony from her first marriage. Am I resonsible for anything legally. I went into it with nothing,left with nothing. I lived with a woman in Oregon for 8 years. She purchased a home 5 years ago. We have gone or seperate ways. She now says I still owe
