<prompt> Human: My roommate likes the AC on generally 247, and also pays a premium for cable TV. Right now were paying: 140 for internetTV150 for utilities most of which stems from the AC, as water is paid for by the management company.I just moved in at the first of this month. Wasnt expecting our bills to be this high.Since I dont use the cable nor do I think we need the AC on 247, is it wrong to ask if I could get a discount on those two bills?I know he will probably say thats fine, but Im just asking if its fair to ask dont want to force him to say yes.Thank you.  <response>: This is a rrelationships post more than anything.You need to communicate to determine what is fair. A bunch of strangers on the internet cant help you.You can argue that the cable is too high and maybe not pay that. But you cant say you dont use the AC. You can discuss lowering the temp, but if this is central air you cant avoid using it.
