commentFacebookPinterestLink From pretending not to hear the doorbell to leaving used tea bags in the sink, house sharing isn’t for the weak – but with the current cost of living, it’s become the norm for plenty of us. Bounce Now, another housemate debate has entered the chat, and this time it’s all about how often your housemate’s partner should be allowed to hang out in your shared home. It all started after one person, who lives with two other women, took to X/Twitter to explain that they were becoming increasingly frustrated by how often one of their housemate’s boyfriends was coming over. CBC He apparently doesn’t contribute towards the household utility bills – and, to make matters worse, he’s sometimes left alone in the house even when his girlfriend isn’t there.

The debate has since poured over to Reddit.

Yall, this is symptomatic of an increasingly anti-social young population lmao. Wym someone having their partner over on the weekends is unreasonable 😭😭?? Are yall okay??? https://t.co/P710poxfhi

I’m sorry if I pay rent, you can’t tell me who I can and can’t invite over if they’re not bothering you or posing any type of threat. We can work out some kind of schedule, perhaps. But no. https://t.co/LFgnTl1CkY

Can’t believe some people don’t see the problem with having their boyfriend over EVERY WEEKEND while having a roommate. No I don’t wanna see your bf in our apartment every fucking weekend are you crazy. Go to his place once a while too the fuck

Loser ass women been on this app all day hollering about “I pay rent so I can have my boyfriend here if I want to!” Why don’t you have an apartment with him instead of a roommate then? Oh ok lmfao

It’s fair, as a woman, to not want somebody’s boyfriend in your flat 12 days a month probably taking up your shared spaces so you can’t even walk around in a bra or shower because he’s in there https://t.co/VJVvexh9Hi
