my husband initiated separation and wants to divorce. i would like know what is taken into consideration for alimony in the state of florida. he makes at least 4 times what i do, and my standard of living has dramatically decreased since separation. i am only interested in temporary alimony (a year or so) while i finish graduate school and find a better paying job. i moved all the way across the country to help him re-establish his business, but i am not in an area that is replete with jobs for me in my field. (humanities) do i stand a chance asking for alimony in florida? in addition, he is keeping our condo and all of the amenities that go along with it (24 hour security, gym, etc.) while i am living in a one room studio at one of the cheapest rates possible. although he would claim that he doesn't have any money to spare, he lives a life that is comfortable and without worry. i am struggling to get by. please help.
