  • Depends. How long until you break up with him and move out?
  • leave him while you can
  • You split the food and utilities. Don't pay him rent unless he asks. After all, you're providing the goodies. And don't split the mortgage because he won't give you half the house unless you get married.
  • do you get equity if you break up? money is money, get it in writing has he ask you to marry him you need to get lot of ?' anserwed
  • I think that depending on how much you each make you should contribute to the household. however, if you can't claim anything on the house, do not contribute to the mortgage, you can pay "rent" and that is as far as I would go, unless your name is on the deed of the house.
  • this is a hard one. Do you want to help him pay off his mortgage and get nothing out of it? he is the one that owns the house and it is like you are renting it off him then. if you want to pay something towards the house i suggest you try and get your name on it... btu all other expenses, the bills the food etc you should split down the middle. I was planning on buying a house, and i wanted my bf to live with me and help me pay it off, i wanted him on the deed as well but then he wouldnt get the first home owners grant later in life... so we tried to figure out a way that if he was paying the house off with me then it is half of his house as well... so we ended up putting him on the deed and losing the first home owners grant, but it makes it easier, stops any future trouble that may arise- we are going great, split the house repayments, the water bill the electricity and sometimes the food bill.. but try to organise soemting to help you be part owner (if you intend to stay with him for a while, if you two are going to break it off in a year or so then hey dont worry about it, just pay him the rent =]
  • There's no reason for you to pay the mortgage, because you don't own the home with him. If he asks, pay a small rent. Otherwise, just contribute money for food and utilities.
