Roommates boyfriend lives with us practically. Stays Thursday- Monday. How would one word a nice text message nicely asking that if he stays here half the week, he should start paying utilities.

i’m in the same situation except he’s here every day. he leaves for work then comes back when he’s off. takes showers, does laundry, orders packages here, uses wifi/water/trash obviously. i also don’t know how to go about talking to her about it because we’re not close at all and barely ever talk😭

This happened to my boyfriend last semester. His roommate’s girlfriend was having roommate issues (aka she was the problem) and just moved in the second he asked her to date. Didn’t ask my boyfriend if it was okay or even mention it he didn’t care but I thought it was a kinda inconsiderate.

This sounds like an apartment situation. I’d ask your roommate if he’s gonna start paying rent. 🤷‍♀️ (even if it isn’t an apartment)
