Woman Questions If She’s The A**Hole For Not Giving Boyfriend’s Family A Contract For Her House

Buying a house is a big step for anyone, but when you’re doing it with a partner, there are even more factors to consider. That’s what one woman on AITA is finding out. She’s in the process of closing on a house, but her boyfriend’s family is causing drama because they want a contract that will protect him in case of a breakup. The thing is, the house and financing are solely in her name, and the bank won’t allow his name on it. So is she the a**hole for not wanting to sign a contract that would hold her responsible for paying him back if they break up? Click to find out what the Reddit community had to say.

Buying a house is a huge milestone and can be stressful. But what happens when your partner’s family gets involved and demands a contract for a house that is solely in your name? In this post, a woman is struggling with her boyfriend’s family who are upset that her boyfriend’s name can’t be on the house. To make matters worse, her boyfriend won’t move in unless his name is on the house due to paranoia from past relationships.

The woman is left wondering if she’s the a**hole for not giving in to their demands. Stay tuned for the comments and reactions to this frustrating situation.
