<prompt> Human: Hi rpersonalfinance! We all have unique living situations, and Id like to get your feedback on how you decide to split the bills with your partner. Even if you have the same salary, long-term partnerships usually result in inequal pay at least at some point in time.- What is the relative difference between you and your partners income?- Do you have a joint account for your finances?- How do you split your expenses?- How do you feel about your arrangement?- How long have you been together?All answers are appreciated!  <response>: Ive been living with my girlfriend for more than two years, so I dont have a ton of experience but from my experience the best way to split finances, relationship wise, is to not count the pennies. Ive done the whole percentage of income thing, but Im personally happier when were just pooling our incomes and purchases. Weve done this when we made about the same, and we like even more now that shes unemployed and Im earning an upper middle class income.
