<prompt> Human: My SO and I purchased an apartment with the help of my inheritance and my parents supplied the rest. This puts us in a situation where we arent paying a mortgage which we are both amazingly thankful for. When my SO and I sell the place eventually, we will pay my parents back their investment and split the profit between us.I am currently in school full time and without a job. Im using what is left of my inheritance to pay for classes and give myself a small amount of money to live off of,shop etc about half of what my SO makes in a month. When we were in the process of purchasing the place, my SO asked what the catch was to him becoming part owner. My parents suggested that perhaps he could hep me out when I was in school by paying a larger portion of the bills. At the time this seemed fair but we have now hit a bit of a road block.My SO feels that because I have an inheritance I have money to share the bills evenly. He suggested that I take on a job if I dont t feel that I can pay the bills properly.The inheritance was intended to help me through school without having to take on a job trust me, I know how lucky this is. We have had a few arguments about this and I feel that we are stuck. How do we figure out who pays what and make it fair for the both of us? We will both be readinganswering posts. Thanks for any advice!!  <response>: Personally I think it was a horrible idea to allow your SO to be part-owner of the house without ponying up 25 of the cost of the house. 50 parents, 25 you, 25 SO... is how i assume things would have been splitIf I were in your shoes Id tell him I would split the bills 5050 with him only if he gave me 25 of what the cost of the house right now. Otherwise STFU and pay the bills while Im in school.Im kinda a jerk like that about money issues though.
