Woman refuses to pay full rent after boyfriend’s brother moves in

Moving in with a significant other can be a big step, but it can be even more complicated when other people start to move in. A woman who agreed to pay half of the rent and utilities for her and her boyfriend’s apartment found herself in a tough spot when his brother unexpectedly moved in. Despite only agreeing to a one week stay, the brother ended up staying longer, causing tension and disrupting the living arrangements. When it came time to pay the bills, the woman refused to pay the full amount, feeling that the addition of the brother was unfair and not something she agreed to. This caused an argument with her boyfriend, who felt she was being petty and trying to hurt him financially. Now, she’s questioning whether or not she’s in the wrong for not paying the full amount. Read on to see what others think about the situation.

Is she being petty or standing up for herself?

Moving in with your significant other can be a big step, but what happens when a surprise guest moves in without your consent? That’s what happened to one woman who found her boyfriend’s brother crashing on their couch. Despite her discomfort, she agreed to let him stay for a few months while her boyfriend found him another place to live. However, when the time came to split the rent and utilities, tensions rose as she refused to pay her half for the third person living there. While her boyfriend insists that she’s being petty and trying to hurt him financially, the woman argues that she didn’t agree to financially support his brother and that living with two other people should cost less than living with one. As the disagreement continues, the woman begins to doubt her own judgment and questions if she’s being unreasonable. Read on for the update on how the situation resolved and what it means for her relationship with her boyfriend.
