No. Had you wanted legal obligations on both your parts, you would have gotten married.

No, in choosing not get to get married you chose not to have any legal rights, so you unfortunately can't change that after the fact.

You might have rights in property that either you bought together or was given to you jointly as a gift. Other than that, I'm afraid he has no obligation to you.
