Do you charge your wife for rent?

If my husband charged me for rent, I'd certainly slap a bill on the table with every mean. Along with laundry bills, cleaning bills, childcare bills, etc. Then he would see how much you already contribute.

Why? In marriage whats yours is hers and whats hers is yours... if you charge her rent you are charging yourself rent also!

No, because she is my wife and my other half. What's mine is also hers so no!

what kind of a$$hole would do that???

In my marriage....what is MINE is OURS. No, rent charged!

Before we were married (living together), I used to write a check to my then-fiancé to cover some of the bills. Now that we're married, our finances are combined, and him charging me for rent would be like him charging himself.

Yes, but she charges me as well.

Of course not, to do so would cause the house to become very
cold and turning up the heater won't work. TRUST ME!

Not if you're in your right mind. This is a truly strange question. Honey - if you are married and your husband is telling you that you have to pay him rent - run do not walk to the nearest lawyer and get yourself out of the marriage. Because you have yourself a genuine fruitcake for a spouse and it can only get worse.

Where are you from asking such a dump question? If the husband tried to charge rent when he's being taken care of by means of household chores, cooking, going to the cleaners, taking care of business issues, having his kids, etc., then you are crazy to be with him.

Um, How bout NO! You help with expenses depending on what you make, this is a marriage not an apartment complex!!!!!!!

I have never been charged rent. When I got married, everything was shared as far as finances. I know many people who keep their money seperate and it causes so many problems. They always have to ask each other to pay a certain bill or whatever. That isn't a marriage, that is a contract being intered into. I would hope your husband doesn't do this to you and if he does, you need to have a serious talk with him. Good luck.

NO, what you have together is both of your responsibilities. Both bills, both everything.

I would dare a man to charge me rent. I'd charge him usage for everything including a certain amout of money per toilet paper square.

We share expenses! If your husband expects you to pay 1/2 the rent from your paycheck, and you have both agreed on that, then it isn't considered "charging you rent". You should both equally be responsible for the bills!

No if a couple is married they should pool their income in one bank account, pay the bills and the rest is family money. Your marriage is going to have alot of problems if you guys are still thinking in terms of yours and mine. When you got married, you became a FAMILY, so you should act like one.

Rent of what? If it's an apartment or house rent I think it should be split between both spouses. I'm not sure I understand your question.

No. I pay all her necessary expenses and she spends all her pay on herself.

Why not? I recently got married and already owned my home. Since my husband had an apartment, he moved in with me but insists on paying me rent as he knows how important it was for me to buy my house and be independent after my divorce. So if its ok for a husband to pay rent to a wife, why not the other way around?

NO...unless you both have decided to split up the expenses

Yep, half. No silly we share expenses.

When you are married it is for better or worse. What is his is yours and what is yours is his. Any person that trys to charge his or her spouse rent is insane. It is both of yours(the house). If my husband tried that I would kick his *** to the curve and tell him its mine now.
