We are young and have been married for just over a year, but she moved out before that. I bought a house before we were married. She has never made any of the payments on it or paid any of the bills. She did some work to it by painting some walls and putting up wall paper. Could the court award her half of that house?

Will I have to pay her alimony? I live paycheck to paycheck. I have always paid all of the bills, which always total more than I make in a month. She always came up with her own spending money somehow.

She told me that she contributed by buying the groceries. Now I have found out that she used the money out of our saving to do that. I asked her about the savings because it somehow ended up in just her name. She told me that there isn’t much left in there and basically implied that I should just forget about that because she was going to be nice and not make me pay alimony. I know that there is more in there than what she leads me to believe. I put my coaching paychecks in there. Should I be afraid to ask her for any of that money?

Also one of her demands was that I let her continue to drive my truck until May, which I also purchased before we were married, because she has a truck of her own but she has always let her younger sister drive it to college, and she didn’t want to have to ask for it back. Doing that leaves me with only my work van to drive around, and I can’t drive that everywhere. She suggested to me that I just go find something cheap to use until she is done with the truck. What should I do?
