Hi! Need some advice here! This is the second marriage for both of us, we're in our late 50's. My husband moved in with me because he was renting when we met and I had my own home with the mortgage fully paid off. We keep our finances separate. Here's the question: should he 'bring something to the table', for lack of better wording, by saving $2k on rent every month now? He wants me to pay half of the grocery bill after deducting half of what I pay in utilities. Problem is, he has expensive dining tastes, so the grocery bills every month are like $900!!! To my $150 utility bills. Even when my kids were home I didn't spend that much every month! Is it petty of me to say "you want to eat like a king, and no longer have a rent payment, so you pay the groceries and I'll pay the utilities." Anyone else out there have your husband (or fiancé) move in with you and benefit financially from it? How do you end up splitting expenses?
