[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like a proportional split, thought you're both pretty close in income. That works out to 43%/57%. This sort of proportional split allows each partner to have their own spending money and not feel resentment over paying too much, etc. [/quote] +1 I'm actually surprised by all these 50/50 posts. If it's a serious long-term relationship I think this is more "fair." [/quote] Disagree. Not every LTR ends in marriage. Until you're married, the money is his and hers (assuming a hetero couple obvi). If the income is fairly close, the higher earning partner can pick up a bit extra on groceries or going out. If they get married, the money ends up theirs. Either way living for two is usually more affordable than living for one--assuming for instance that you're going to get a one bedroom apartment either way. Of course two people living together can afford a nicer one than each person on their own.[/quote]
