Legal Question in Family Law in Missouri

I lived with my boyfriend for the past 4 years in a house in his name only. When I moved in, we put a pool in, I paid the down payment with my own money and got the pool loan in my name only (he did't have credit at the time to do so). Last year we added a pool house using a HELOC that is in both of our names. In 2011 we merged our bank accounts band were jointly paying both loans and I was paying half of all the house payments, etc. (even prior to merging bank accounts). He got a new job in Chicago and moved there in January (still has primary home in MO). He asked me to move out, which I did, March of this year, but will not assume the pool loan, which still has a considerable amount on it, and will not refi the HELOC to get my name off of the loan. I am also on his car loan. My credit is over 800 and I do NOT want to get it ruined. I just want this all to be over with. I am not going to continue to pay for anything that is no longer my asset or that I no longer am allowed to utilized. I need professional guidance. I'm not certain what area of legality this situation pertains to, so I chose Family Law.
