Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Ohio

Liability of a cosigner on an automobile lease

Last year, I cosigned with my then boyfriend, who I was engaged to, on a five year lease on a car. We have since split, and he now lives 30 miles away and I NEVER, nor care to, drive the vehicle. I would like to get out of my part of the lease so I may purchase my own car and quit paying for him to soley use the car I originally signed-off on. Thanks for yor help.
