Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

Hello,

My husband and I recently agreed on divorce. Nothing has been filed yet to my knowledge, but I did find evidence of him cheating. Having sexual conversations with other women, then desire to meet up with them etc. While finding that we decided it was best for him to the leave the house. Not being able to look at him anymore and to make sure things would stay civil. When he left, he took the divorce papers he printed from the library told me he was going to have them taken care of. It has been a week, he left me w/ $5.00. I had started a job the same day he left, part time, 2-3 days per week. I do not make enough to make it on my own. He hasn't paid the rent here nor has he paid the bills, also hasn't answered any of my texts concerning the bills. My gas is to be shut off April 11th. I feel what he is doing is wrong. I know we both agreed it was best for him to leave the home, but he also said he would be taking care of rent ect. Seeing nothing has been paid, I'm wondering what I'm supposed to do. I have been here selling MY things just to put gas in my truck and feed my pets, while family is helping me with groceries. Is this considered abandonment? It has been a week since I heard ANYTHING from him. I know he is ok because he has shown up to work (he works with my family). However where do I go from here, what do I do if I sell this mobile home, am I still to give him half of anything I sell that was ours? Please help me, I'm confused and very lost as this is my first and I pray very last divorce. I guess I'm looking for guidance, some advice and some possibilties on things I may be able to do to make sure he gets what he deserves.
