Default Re: Splitting Rent With GF

Soma,

I am in a similar situation, but with a very stable GF (ie. no "what-if" contigency for moving out established). I make a lot more than her. I pay 2/3 of the rent/bills, she pays 1/3. But she cooks and cleans a lot, and if she was a lazyshit we'd have issues. But it has worked well so far. I don't think that there is anything wrong with paying more. You're still just getting a discount on your rent anyways.

In the case that she ends up doing more cleaning/cooking than me, I think I'll offer to pay a little more of the rent/bills. Great idea, thanks.

Lemme just clarify that I don't actually make or mention her doing any more work. And when the house is [censored], we both clean. But it just kinda works that way. My main point, I guess if I even have one, is that I wouldn't be very happy paying >%50 for a free-loader.
