What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NC
I want to separate from my husband...I have a place to live, but if I leave without separation papers..can I lose my half of assets?

- Your portion of the marital proceeds is not necessarily half, though NC does default to half unless good cause is shown why "equal" is not "equitable."

- If the place you're planning to move belongs to a new boyfriend, the adulterous relationship could affect alimony and possibly even property distribution.

The rest of the marital assets will come into play, as well.

Explain how you own more of the home than he does if you are both on the deed as joint tenants.
