My boyfriend does not want me to pay him rent.?
Contribute nothing but what he asks for. You are using utilities, so paying half is a fair request. He is buying a home and doesnt want to have a rental agreement with you, because youre his GF, not a tenant. You also arent buying the house with him. If you pay for a portion of the mortgage and then break up with him, he doesnt want you making any claims of ownership or demanding compensation. He isnt going to risk losing his house is what Im saying. Just go along with what he is asking. He is trying to protect himself and you need to respect that. If he puts a ring on your finger, the situation changes. Otherwise, give him what he asks and let it be.
