Actually, it depends on the state and the final terms of the divorce.
Usually, if the marriage was less than 10 years, the alimony typically is limited to half the term of the marriage.
A long term marriage divorce may state 'until he dies, she dies, or until she remarries.' The husband may also reserve the right for alimony should he have significant loss of income and/or the wife has a significant increase of income (i.e., wins lotto).
It may be prudent to check if he is benefiting from a live-in lover's income. If so, the alimony could be reassessed for an increase.
There's no fixed for how long a husband has to pay alimony. Everything depends on the court order and the circumstances of the case. The alimony amount may be paid in lumpsum at a time or it may be paid as per monthly maintenance. If one needs more details they can look for Siddhartha Shah and Associates on the following details.

Alimony is spousal support that is paid after a divorce has been granted. Alimony can be paid on a recurring monthly basis, or it can be paid in one lump sum. After a divorce, alimony is granted to one spouse, so they can continue to enjoy the same standard of living, which they had during the marriage. The basic premise of alimony is that a former spouse should not have to suffer a diminished lifestyle because their marriage has ended. Typically, the individual receiving alimony is the ex wife, however alimony is not specific to one gender. There are extenuating circumstances which may lead to spousal support for a man. Alimony is usually paid to former spouses who did not work during the marriage, and the other spouse’s income was their only source of monetary support. Today, due to the prevalence of dual income families, granting alimony has almost become a relic of the past. Alimony is paid in only 15% of marriages which ends in divorce. Pendente alimony is temporary spousal support that is awarded to one spouse until the divorce decision is finalized. Rehabilitative alimony is temporary spousal support that is granted while the former spouse receives the necessary training and education to return to the workforce. Permanent alimony may be awarded to an elderly spouse who was married for a long period of time, especially if there is a disability or illness, which prevents them from working. The length of a marriage is one of the most important factors a judge will consider when awarding alimony. Couples must be married at least ten years before alimony is considered. Another important factor, which a judge will review, is the standard of living during the marriage. Under the Uniform Marriage and Divorce Act, a former spouse will not receive alimony if they have the ability to earn an income. Permanent alimony is until death, unless circumstances has changed, such as a remarriage or the children are older, and your ex spouse is able to resume working. In these circumstances, a couple can return to court to have alimony payments discontinued. Most states no longer consider fault when granting alimony. Alimony is awarded at the discretion of the court on a case by case basis. If you are getting a divorce, then you should obtain the services of a lawyer who has legal knowledge about family law, specifically laws pertaining to divorce and alimony. A divorce lawyer will be your advocate in fighting for your rights to receive alimony, so you don’t suffer financial hardships because of a divorce.

this is a question for your lawyer , what is the bill that has not been paid for instance, does it have anything to do with the welfare of children involved, you could let your self open to being sued for not paying the full alimony , etc.
No, as you will not be able to get divorced (due to the fact you're not married), and therefore will not pay (or be paid) alimony.
No, you cannot get alimony if you were never married. There is, however, something called palimony, but it is very difficultto get.
There is no such ratio as to the years of marriage and amount of alimony. Generally the alimony is decided as per case to case. It also depends upon the demand of alimony.
