    Sharring the costs of a house togheter or not?

    When you life alone and you meet someone that you fall in love with and after a while your patner moves in with you. Would you ask him or her for the half of the cost of the house?

    If you rent: of course!
    If you bought the place and you are planning to add your partner on the dee so she/he will become an official owner too: of course!
    Of its on your name and want to keep it that way: nope.
    My husband rented a small studio when he met me. When he moved in to my own house, he payed me half of the rent he used to pay for his studio. No way near half of my loan but we both felt we were having a good deal. He did not feel like he was paying off my loan and i didn't feel like I was taken advantage of.

    Has been discusses quite a bit already on this forum. Some examples:
    https://www.9lives.be/forum/algemene...j-inwonen.html
    https://www.9lives.be/forum/economie...t-inwonen.html

    The consensus in all the threads is a bit the same: every person has an own and different solution for this problem and everyone's opinion differs alot about this subject. The only thing that works, is talking about it with your partner and looking for a solution that you both agree on.

    Yes i rent and in my eyes it was not more then normal that we would share at least The rent. But hè says that i try to take advantage of me. For me his point of view is hard to understand.
    That is why I am curious about others opinions and there reasons to pay both half or not.
    I looked at other discussions about this but what I found was about a house that someone bought but i rent so hè doesnt pay of my loan Just The monthly Costs for The house in wich we life togheter

    Difficult question, but I would guess her.

    Nederlands is mijn moedertaal. Mijn vriend spreekt geen Nederlands vandaar mijn vraag in engels. En volgens mij gaat deze discussie niet over hoe goed of slecht iemand engels SCHRIJFT.

    If you own the house, I would ask to share the costs of living. i.e. electricity, water, heating... If you should seperate, he/she won't be able to lay claim on part of the house.

    To me it seems absolutely normal that if you move in somewhere where there is rent Involved, you chip in. If you use the house and utilities as a couple, it's common decency to pay half of the rent. You don't want to be called ,as we say in flemish, a profiteur.

    Hoewel de meesten hier Engels kunnen, is Nederlands hier toch de voertaal. Dus wanneer er commentaar op komt, gelieve hier ook begrip voor te tonen. Er zijn al genoeg Engelstalige fora.
