My question would be, why would anyone really want that sort of relationship? I guess that's entirely his business. But then, he is asking for advice on a public forum so I guess it's open for comment  . |
Ah ok, well I'm being a bit slow today!
If I was her, I'd be very suspicious of his motives. Regardless of paying part of the mortgage and bills, if there's no agreement, she's screwed if he decides to end the relationship and she gets nothing for her investment.
She's the one making the biggest compromise because she's moving some distance, which means she needs new employment. Why would she do that when the stakes for losing everything are so high?
Unmarried people split all the time, regardless of them sharing a mortgage. Truth is already in a good place because he clearly has the money to buy her out if need be.
