Palimony, yes or no

What is the name of your state? NC. My ex and I were together for 11 years and had twins together. This past six months he encouraged us to move from CA, where we lived from birth, to NC because of a very good job offer. I agreed and he came out in December and I and the the kids in January. But half way to NC he calls me and said that he was leaving me, taking the kids and moving in with some girl. Any way, I kept the kids and we moved to NC. He said he didn't tell me is was over before the move is so that he could protect me and the kids from poverty. We never married but lived together, owned a home together, had dept together, and children together. He is paying some sort of unafficial child support by way of paying some of my bills and rent. Do I have any legal right to palimony considering it takes me a month to make in wages what he gets in one week.

Nope. Doesn't sound like you qualify for palimony at all. You would qualify for half the equity in the house if your name was on the deed. And you can file for child support. But you do not get palimony.
