‘Her rent is MORE than my mortgage’: Woman with 9 cats is upset her homeowner-boyfriend won't move into her overpriced rented house

If you own a home with a low interest rate in this economy, holy moly, you have to hold on tight to that. Most people reaching the typical "homeowners" age are not even able to dream of owning a home, let alone, one with a reasonable interest rate. So when this guy posted on Reddit asking if it was unreasonable for him to not want to give up his home that he owns and only pays 2.8% interest, the internet obviously sided with him.

So, what's happening here, is a classic girlfriend-boyfriend dispute. They have been dating for over three years now and want to move in together. It's the logical next step. The dilemma is, however, who will move into whose place? Usually it's a little bit more of a blurred line situation. However, the internet agrees, that in the case of this Redditor's situation, he most definitely should not give up his home. He owns his home, has since before they started dating, and pays a low interest rate. She is renting a home, granted, it's a tad bigger, but her rent is way higher than his mortgage, and she has 9 cats, a dog, and daughter. Financially speaking, she should jump at the chance to move in somewhere where she no longer has to worry about rent. Unless he's willing to add her to the deed, which I'm thinking he wouldn't right away at least, she would basically be living for free! And he LOVES the animals, which is crazy! Because most people hear “9 cats and a dog” and think that is pure chaos. But he's down with the pets, it's about losing his homeownership. And the internet agrees: Do not give up that home, my dude!
