It's Group Therapy Thursday time sponsored by Paladino's Cicero Pizza!
Dear Ted and Amy
My boyfriend and I have been together a year and a half. He owns a home and I rent. He stays at my place until we figure out if we move in together but he’s still paying his monthly mortgage. My dad is old school and thinks he should be helping me with my rent. I disagree. I have paid on my own for years and don’t see why it’s necessary for him to help me out especially when he’s paying for his home already. I told my dad this is what most couples do, one usually stays at the other's place way more. It doesn’t mean they have to split the cost of rents. When we move in together then yes of course. Help me convince my dad this is how life is before you are living together and married. I am capable of paying my own bills.
Signed,
Daddy's Little Girl in Dewitt
