If you and your SO both have your own residences, but you spend all your time at his place, so you're basically living together, should you offer to split the utilities bill? Sorry if this seems really dumb and obvious, but I don't have any kind of experience with this, and I'm wondering.

Bump, cuz I really want some input on this.

 

How do other people handle this, and what is considered "polite" or appropriate in this situation?

 

Just as an example (not my situation), didn't anyone have this problem in college, where someone's bf wasn't on the lease but basically lived with his gf, your roommate? And it caused a bit problem with water/utilities and eventually he had to pitch in on those bills, so the whole house wasn't paying the extra cost for her bf?

 

That's probably a little more extreme than situations most adults find themselves in, but see what I mean?

I wouldn't mention it unless they asked.

Make him get off his duff and come to your house once in a while. Seems a little one-sided to me. The you wouldn't feel guilty. Otherwise, no, his deal for not ever coming over.
