Splitting Rent With GF

In this case I don't think it really matters, you are going to be paying the grunt of it anyways. She only makes $1000 a month, so if she forks over $600 for rent and bills, you are going to have to pay for food and entertainment exspenses anyways. I guess it depends on how she spends her discretionary income. If she spends it recklessly then you should probably make her pay half. If she needs the money for car repairs, insurance, or something she really needs, you might want to cut her a deal on the rent.

I think it is important she pays something, b/c if not, control issues might eventually stem from the situation. If you are well off, you should probably make her pay an amount that keeps her responsible but doesn't keep her in a bind to the point she might resent you for it.

I cant believe that any sane male would agree to pay more just because he makes more money. They are not married, it is a completely different situation if they were, but this is not a good way to get things started. If she makes only 1000$ per month, tell her to stop being a mooch and get a real job and/or an education. Ill gladly pay for the bulk of drinks and dinner for a girl Im seeing, but anything like this is split 50/50.
