Andrew L | Should I pay rent? We live together and I clean? |
My fiance and I live together and he wants me to give him $400 a month for rent. I told him that if I am going to give him money for rent then he can do his own cleaning, laundry, etc. He considers putting the dishes in the dishwasher doing something and he makes me put them away. I dont mind cleaning and doing that stuff but if I am going to be paying him to do his cleaning it just doesnt seem right. See, I dont have alot of money right now so it is bothering me. Should I make him choose one or the other? Has anyone else been in this situation? |

You fiance needs to realize that when you are married your money is his and his is yours. So he might as well just deal with paying most if not all the rent now. Or he at least needs to lighten up about it.
If he can't do that now you will probably not have a successful marriage.
If you both are serious about marriage I think you should open a joint checking account where both of your money goes in. That way when the rent is paid its paid by both parties, even if not equally. |

if you pay no rent, he's essentially paying you $400 to clean. That's very expensive for cleaning, a maid would be far cheaper. |

Jesus, what's your alternative? Walk out, get your own place, pay the full rent and do all your own cleaning anyway?
Think a little bit. It is expensive to live and it's not his fault you're broke. $400 a month is nothing, you'll never get that kind of break anywhere else. You're the one exploiting the situation, not him.
Stop whining and pull your fricken weight. |

Are you employed outside the home? Do you have some source of income other than his income?
You have some relationship issues to settle before you get married. Marriage is a partnership, and you guys are already hassling over who pays what and what constitutes helping out around the house.
Let's say you both work and your profession doesn't pay as much. You're a fireman and he's a lawyer. Should you each pay the same percentage of your income for housing or should you each pay the same dollar amount? I don't care which you decide on, but you have to agree on whatever system you're going to use.
If you're home all day and he's earning the only income, you should be willing to take care of the house and the laundry and the grocery shopping for the most part. But you're not a servant.
Sit down and talk out what each of you wants and expects out of your relationship. If you don't want the same things you probably don't belong together. Part of being in love and being married is taking care of each other. This question is a very small part of everything you are, but I don't get a very good vibe from it. |

You seriously think cleaning an apartment is worth $400/mo? I don’t, and it’s not normal to pay your spouse/partner to do housework. If you’re living there, you do need to contribute towards the living expenses. Many couples divide expenses based on a ratio their incomes. For example if you make $500/mo and he makes $1,000/mo, you obviously have $1,500 month total. Since you make 1/3 of the income, you pay 1/3 of the bills and he pays the other 2/3.
There’s a bigger issue than money here. You seem to be implying you’re going to marry this guy. Ok great, but do you think he’s suddenly going to pitch in and start helping with the chores then? Probably not. You have to decide now if you can stand being the maid for the rest of your life because you can’t expect anyone to change. I’d figure that out before worrying about who’s paying for what.

I may say that i think a man should pay all the rent and at least most all the expenses involved in the home if the woman is there to take care of the home and his personal needs. |

If you split the expenses then you should split the work, housework included (if not especially the housework, since that is truly your shared space).
But more importantly, you two should probably talk about why you are engaged, and why you are getting married. If it is for love, then I have to question the guy that will hit the person he loves up for money, unless you guys are so hard up that he might lose the apartment without your help. If you moved in together to save money...it seems like you might just be headed for a life of servitude. |

I think that before you guys get married you need to work these issues out - both money and chores.
Before my boyfriend and I moved in with each other, we wrote a list of what our chores and shared chores would be. We both split rent and utilities down the middle and get around to doing our fair share of the cleaning whenever it is needed.
I personally do not think that cleaning up would make up for your rent, but I guess it depends on how messy everything could be (if it seems like it's taking you many hours every single day, it could definitely be debatable!). You two should have a mature and rational discussion regarding this. If your money situation is going to continue to be as tight as it is now, you may need to find another long term situation. However if your fiance can see a light at the end of the tunnel (and you for that matter) for making it an equal partnership in every way, try giving the solution a time frame as it might help with the negotiating.
Hope that helped! |

I think what would be fair is if each of you did equal work like if he gave $200 and did some work and you gave $200 and did equal work, that's what I'd do, but I have never had the problem, but my friend did, and that's how the resolved it. |

Listen up! I don't care if you are a man or a woman - both need to contribute to the bills, the upkeep and the care of the home. Living on one's own is expensive and no one should live on one's own when a girl lives with them. No one rides for free. If women what to be treated as equal, than contribute as equal. I am not saying if the man makes $4500/mth and the woman makes $1500 that her contribution should be the same as his, but it should be of value. $400/mth is a joke! and yes you should clean up. Both of you should. Grow TF up and stop acting like someone owes you something. |
