Since you were in a "long" marriage, you are entitled to get alimony. The lower your income compared to his the more the alimony. Also, everything both of you and the business earned during the marriage is community property so you are entitled to half of it. My guess is that you know little if anything about your right and let hilm walk all over you, so you need to go to a divorce attorney to at least find out what you are entitled to.

Your no longer having to live with him may be the best thing that has happened to you in your life. Consider going to some group therapy sessions with other newly divorced women.
