He's asking for $24 each night she spends.
Twitter thinks a Reddit man is insane for asking his girlfriend to pay a fee each time she sleeps over. The unnamed man asked if he's doing the wrong thing by charging her rent to make up for the cost of increased utilities which has apparently been caused by her presence.
The original post was created by u/aitaboyfriend2 on community r/AmITheA**hole and shared on Twitter by @AITA_Reddit. It explains that since the man's girlfriend started sleeping over three or four days a week his utility bill has gone up. He didn't state how much his bill has grown, but did reveal his monthly rent is $1800.
As a way to make up for the added expense, the man asked for $24 per night from the girl, who apparently thinks he's a jerk. He noted she and her friends think his ask is ridiculous."I explained that all of my utility bills have gone up significantly since she started staying over more and that $24 for one night in a $1800/mo apartment is a great deal. Heck, I wish I got to live in my apartment for that little," the post reads.
The pair live in separate apartments and have been dating for a year, he revealed. His major concern is that he's starting a serious relationship with someone who won't pull their financial weight."I really love her and don't want to lose her but I'm afraid of ending up in a relationship where bills aren't split equally and I don't want to be with someone who just sees me as a meal ticket.
Let's do the math. If this woman is staying at the man's house for three to four days a week, that's between $288 and $384 per month: up to 21 percent of the man's rent."What kind of utilities cost $48 a day? Are they burning whale oil in there?" said television writer Matt Nedostup. Others echoed the point.This fool can afford an $1800/month apartment by himself but the utilities going up a small amount is breaking the bank? Throw him away.
