If you are receiving alimony and you have a boyfriend who moves in with you, there is a good chance that your ex can go to court and have the dollar amount of your support greatly reduced or completely stopped. Accordingly, before going any further with any live-in arrangement, you should consult directly with a local divorce attorney; the can best advise you as to specific state law.
