There is no definite answer to your question, although you seem to have a decent argument for opposing spousal support due to the short duration of your marriage and voluntary unemployment of your spouse. When presented with the question of spousal support in your divorce, the Court will weigh a list of factors in determining the amount and duration of spousal support, if any. A list of these factors can be found in Virginia Code Section 20-107.1.
