Yeah but charging a partner rent is kinda shitty. It’s supposed to be an equitable partnership that benefits both parties. Otherwise why have a partner?
Why would I have someone live for free in my house who doesn’t contribute to the expense of upkeep? Ie, a freeloader. That’s what rent is. Sorry, a partner doesn’t expect their SO to pay their way for them just because they pay a mortgage payment instead of a rent payment. Add to that, now since it is a mortgage payment, any repairs and other incidentals are paid for by the owner as well. Does this person get to just break things and expect the partner to pay for it? That’s another thing rent covers. Why have a partner that is more expensive than being alone? Why have a partner at all?

if 2 people live in a place, 2 people should pay the rent. that is equality. you’re advocating for the woman to not pay the rent because she’s a woman in the meme.
We’re talking mortgage. If we’re talking rent then yeah she should absolutely pay. It just gets muddier when equity is involved and there should be some agreement up front.

Equity? You do realize loads of rental properties are under a mortgage right?
I’m not dating the landlord
Yes, yes you are.
Shit now we’re in porn
dude, if you date someone who owns a house, then live in that house, you are dating the landlord and they are allowed to charge you rent.
He paid 700k for an apartment, so naturally she can live in for free, because he doesn’t pay rent. Very smart
No one said that. That’s a whole new position
