How do you deal with a breakup if you live together and the lease isn’t up anytime soon? It’s going to be really hard for either of us to afford alone.

Either split the fee to break the lease, sublease, or pick who will keep the place and get a roommate while the other moves out. Sometimes landlords will work with you too on the situation and reduce or waive the fee to break the lease if you advertise and find replacement tenants for them.

Ya you need to get out. Break the lease and move out. And don’t move in with a boyfriend again.

Also, potentially look for a transfer within the building to smaller unit and it’s cheaper, had the same situation and after 6 month in the lease I could transfer the units and gave the bigger one away and the fee is smaller than breaking the lease. If not then maybe sublet, if then that doesn’t work, I would break the lease and go into debt since my sanity is more important and then find a place alone or with roomate.

Do any of you make more than your male partner? My boyfriend and I have been together about 8 months, and we haven't talked about money, but I have a feeling that I make about 30K more than him (we are the same age).

I have had multiple guys leave me in the past because I make like 7K more...
