What's the biggest step in any relationship? What does every partner desire or expect the outcome to be from a future with one another? We would not deny that moving in with someone is a major step in any scenario. This is a huge milestone in most relationships and tells your significant other that you're serious in taking the next step, as scary as it may be. Taking this step also shows the financial stability that both partners have at this time which is usually a good feeling, however, this story is a different case. Making the decision to move in with anyone, even a roommates, takes trust and confidence in that relationship to grow and become even stronger. This also means getting to know each others habits, pet peeves, and maybe not so attractive sides. 

In today's 'Am I the A$$hole?' post we hear from OP on her struggles and reasoning behind not including her boyfriends name on their new house that they're moving into together. Although there are some insignificant small details including below, do we think this shows her trust and obligation to her relationship with her boyfriend? 

Read below to find out why OP made this decision and if readers think its reasonable!

    Smile - AITA for not putting my boyfriends name on my house? I really thought this was normal but so many people are telling me I'm a bitch for not doing so that it's starting to mess with my head tbh.

    Sounds normal to us. You don't always have to give up everything for a relationship.

    Font - I recently received a house, my grandmother passed away and left her 2 houses to my sister and I. We sat down and between the 2 of us decided that she should have the bigger house as she is married and has 2 kids and another on the way, while I would move into the smaller 2 bedroom house. My sisters husband has been added to the title of her house as he helped her pay the tax on it. I was able to pay the tax on mine by myself as it was cheaper due to being smaller, because my boyfriend (3

    Font - We had a housewarming party last weekend and his parents came up to me towards the end of the night and were going on about how lucky BF and I were to be able to live somewhere like this rent free and it gives us such a head start in life and they were very appreciative that I'd given half the house to my bf. I corrected them that I hadn't and he wasn't on the title but was welcome to live with me and not pay rent so that he had more money to put towards his studies (we are both masters s

    Font - AITA here? I've gotten a bunch of messages asked what my bf thinks so I put my response here: I brought it up with him on Monday and he said that he feels like it's a sign I don't trust him. I said that I wouldn't add a man to the title unless we were married and he was paying for half of the rates and stuff. He said that he feels like I'm blackmailing him into getting married. I said I wasn't, I just wouldn't want to make a huge commitment like giving him half my house without some commi

    Font - Khaleesixev - 5 hr. ago NTA. Listen to this, and make sure that you have clear expectations for finances moving forward. This guy and his family all sound entitled, and you don't want to give them an opportunity to cheat you.

    Font - Harpers Ghost - 4 hr. ago The blackmailing comment is ridiculous. If he doesn't want the commitment of marriage, owning a house together unmarried is a HUGE commitment.

    Smile - GremlinComandr 1 hr. ago Honestly I feel like the BF just wants his name on the title so he can break up with op and make her sell the house and give him half of everything.

    Font - MooseValuable3158.5 hr. ago Partassipant [1] Even if you do get married, please do not put him on the title. I have a friend who kept the title in a family trust and got to keep the house ten years later when he cheated on her and left her. Him telling his family he got half is super problematic.

    Font - SuperHuckleberry125 - 5 hr. ago This right here. "it's your home and he shouldn't have to help pay taxes and other maintencae things for a home he doesn't own." 100% THIS I can hear it now.

    Font - rbollige . 6 hr. ago Partassipant [3] Bf is really coming across as a gold-digger. It seems so much like the whole family is trying to scam OP by creating the false perception that this expectation is normal. You know, say a falsehood over and over and people start to think it's true.

    Font - Seed_Planter72.5 hr. ago Yes, things can happen in a relationship, as OP is finding out. If they split, he gains half her house for no good reason.
