No it's not normal looking if you're living together it's 50/50 deal and if he can't come up with his half tell him you're not going to come up with your half and see how fast he comes up with it he's using you big time watch and see one of these days when you guys break up he will have money you want that's bulshit you need to start being a little bit smarter and start looking ahead he's using you using you

+1 yMy boyfriend and I believe in more traditonal ways of life. We both share similar values and want similar things. There is no shame in wanting to be a housewife or live traditionally with your s/o... but it will only work if you both have a mutual unerstanding and healthy relationship. Do you both want the same thing? You dont seem to be on the same page as him. Maybe communicate to him what your concerns are. If he is asking you to help him out with rent, then you shouldn't complain. Support eachother, and talk things out with him. Be mature about it.

500 opinions shared on Dating topic. Well if you’re working and he is asking you for rent because you’re living there all the time then I think it’s fair. I mean not everyone can afford to comfortably afford everything as well as feed another leech along with it. He’s not obliged to provide everything for you since he is not your husband so you don’t really have wife rights as a girlfriend. Plus if you want a traditional man then you need to be a traditional woman too.

+1 yThat’s how it usually works when you’re just dating. If you’re serious and eventually get engaged/marry and you both talked that you will be staying at home taking care of the kids, I’ll gladly cover the mortgage. It’s a trade off. Not just everything given to you for not doing anything.

+1 yWow, double standards, huh?
If both of you are living together, then both of you should pay your share of rent. You should pay half, and so should he. It's only normal that you did if you're living with him. But if he lives alone, then he should pay it by himself. Love does not pay the bills! Gosh62 Reply- +1 y
Good to know there are hard working, aspiring, & considerate women out there. I blame too much attention to pop culture and media, figures like Cardi B, that believes as long as she has the 'wap' she's exempt from cooking and cleaning. Your right it's a team effort with everything, of course everything doesn't have to be on a spreadsheet like I'll cover outings and be such or we can work it out simply.

@Slayerrrrrrr My mother and father split the household chores. Until my brother was living with us, he and I, both helped our parents out at home. My parents were never sexist, and expected BOTH of us to help out at home. They believe that everyone should learn everything and only then would we be able to live independently. My brother knows cooking, and so do I (I know only a little haha, I'm still learning), both of us do our own laundry, and I'd make my bed, my brother would make his, and my parents would make theirs. My brother is in college now, so he has to do everything lol
+1 yIt doesn't matter if he loves you or not. I believe that when you live with someone, whoever that may be, expenses should be shared in some way.
Trust me, it's better that way. When you pay your own share, you won't be dependent on him (ex. you guys have a fight and break up, he will have the right to kick you out cause he's the one paying the rent) if that makes sense.
If you can't afford it, then that's a different thing and if that's the case, I suggest you talk to him.00 Reply
+1 yunless he's absolutely rich or somethin, you shouldn't actually really depend on someone else to pay your rent. if you both are living together? then probably pay half the rent and make him pay the other half. its not about love, maybe he just can't afford to do it alone try being in his situation and understanding him better perhaps
00 ReplyYou need to pay your share as well. Not only is it part of being an adult, but it is also part of being in a relationship where you share things that need to be paid for.
He's being responsible by making you pay rent. You should thank him.10 ReplyI mean do you not want equality? or do you want it only when it benefits you? At the end of the day, he is your boyfriend, not your husband so he is not obligated to do that for you

yes I would expect my girlfriend to pay towards cost of things.

+1 yBills are part of growing up. If you really loved him you'd only focus on what more you can do. I mean if you don't feel loved you could always break up with him and get your own apartment, oh wait...

Dude, the entitlement & audacity... 😂
I think you forgot to consider that she does in fact have a vagina that's willing to put out, like most other girls just like her. And that with all good vagina comes special priveleges like free rent, 24/7 access to the fridge w/o having to grocery shop, and immunity from chores. She should sue his ass until he regrets the day he was born, dirtbag. *Sarcasm*
u +1 y@Slayerrrrrrr doesn’t she get a dick herself why does she get off the hook?

I'm glad you mentioned that, totally forgot. That kind of availability is hard to come by these days with anything. Ex. Car broke down & need a mechanic? You gotta wait 3 days. Imagine her boyfriend telling her that she has to wait 3 business days to get dick? 😂
