    We both pay the bills but I’m the one who makes sure to pay each bill on time.

    My Boo pays the actual bills; however, my monthly household contribution goes into the savings account to be sued for house repairs or traveling.

    We split the bills equally, but I am the one who keeps track of the expenses and physically writes the checks and pays the bills online.

    It's an 80/20 split. FH makes more and is full time so he covers most of the bills. I'm just part time so I cover a few bills and the little odds n ends we need.

    We just moved in together but I would say we will do that equally. Still trying to figure that one out.

    We will pay the bills together, my boo is great with a budget so he will help our family with those skills.

    The bills are split down the middle right now, but I have access to all the accounts and I pay the bills. I make more than him. When we get married, we will have a joint account, so it won't matter who makes more. I will continue to be in charge of the bills and the budget because he used to pay all his bills late or use his money for non-bills first.
