<prompt> Human: Boyfriend and I live in his house he just purchased. I really wanted to live together but bf did not want to rent, so we looked at homes to buy. I was included in the decision making and he absolutely considered my opinion when it came to which house to buy, we settled on a house that we thought together, wed get a good deal. He gets to build equity and it gets subsidized by me; I get a reduced rate in living. We settled on a larger than I would have liked home, with a reasonable price tag..however, little did I know, my bf and his dad had decided on a 15 year loan over a 30. I thought this was insane as I that is a chunk of change, but bf had a good paying job and could afford the extra cost.I lost my job and my bf was able to pick up the slack. I cleaned the house, cooked, did minor home improvements, weeded, etc., to feel I was pulling my own weight.. I do realize this was incredible generous of him and I am grateful.But then he lost his job and shit hit the fan, unemployment was able to cover for a bit, but now hes back at school working part time and cant afford nearly as much as he would like.I too am back in school and only working part time.I just got a pay raise to 15hr and work 24hrs a week, so Im doing okay, but boyfriend wants to charge me 900 half utilities for rent. I feel like this is a little steep--if I were living on my own, rent would be 500-700 including utilities.Am I being selfish and unreasonable?I really dont know. Im happy to help as much as I can, but I feel like I should feel like Im benefiting from this arrangement to.I know a lot of you wont find that this matters, but to me it does... I have significant school loans that Im beginning to pay off, that also rips a nice chunk out of paycheck.Bf has no debt, and parents to lean on should shit hit the fan.Please help. I really dont know whats reasonable.I thought I could pay what I would be paying elsewhere, but stressed bf is insistent on 900 half utilities is more than fair.Is it crazy of me to think I should have special privileges as a gf?Thank you for your time : Edit: I should add, 15 year mortgage rate is 2150, and bf said rent for a home this size is 1800.  <response>: If this situation were a clean issue of living with a SO who was the sole homeowner and paying toward costs, I would recommend that you pay 12 of utilities and a fair amount of rent perhaps what you might pay to live in an apartment on your own?.However, its obvious that your BF can no longer afford his house since losing his job. And you cant afford 900 a month. You need to move out.
