Lana had been dating Ashton for several months before he asked her to move in with him and share the expenses of an apartment. They split everything equally for years until Lana discovered that Ashton had lied all along.
“It’ll be great. We’re both recent graduates, so living together makes more sense. We split the bills 50-50, and both of us win,” Ashton told Lana. She wasn’t sure moving in together after eight months of dating was the best idea.
“I don’t know, Ashton. It’s a big commitment. As you said, we both just graduated from school,” Lana said hesitantly.

“Well, it’s the only we can move to the city and find jobs together. I have some money already for a deposit and everything. I’ll go find the apartment and handle all that stuff if you let me,” Ashton continued, urging Lana to say yes.
“Ok, I agree. It makes sense because living in the city has become pretty expensive. Once we find jobs, it’ll be fine,” she finally accepted.
Ashton moved to the city and found an apartment quicker than Lana expected. He set everything up, and Lana packed her stuff, moving in with him only a few weeks later. Rent was pretty reasonable, and it was better to split it down the middle.
“You can send the rent money to me. I’ll send it from my account to the landlord directly,” Ashton told her when she asked about it.

“Does it cover utilities and stuff? What about the Wi-Fi?” Lana wondered.
“How about you pay the Wi-Fi from your account?” Ashton suggested. Lana agreed immediately because Ashton had been in charge of so much, but she also wanted to be helpful.
This arrangement worked perfectly for several years until Lana wanted to stop renting and get a house with Ashton. But they needed to talk about the future before that.
“Honey, we’ve been living together for several years. Do you see us going further?” she asked one night.
“Of course, Lana. But I wasn’t sure you wanted to get married anytime soon,” Ashton said sincerely.
