Re: spousal support
The family code provides that there is a presumption of a reduced need for spousal support if you cohabitate with a person of the opposite sex. This would place the burden upon you of convincing the court that spousal support should not be reduced.
Re: spousal support
Terminating, or even changing spousal support is generally based upon "changed circumstances." It would be up to a judge if he were to request such a modification.
Good Luck
