Say NO. It worked for me. I only pay child suport. Alimony laws vary greatly by state, but since you live in MA I can tell you that alimony is NOT a given in this state.

I don't think there are any clear cut, pretty much at the discretion of the judge in most states

not positively sure but i think.<since i was never into that stuff>.....here in oregon.. i think it goes for 2 yrs or until remarried...and is rated on individual circumstances.. as who makes more money say the woman made 200k and the man made 12k a yr they go by what they are used to living off of.... i dont know if there is a cap on it or not.....
