I said it when the roles were reversed (and got my ass handed to me #onhere) and I will stick with it this go round: it isn’t weird to want your spouse to pay foe the maintenance of your biggest investment, one from which they benefit. Don’t call it rent but call it something.

Having said that, if she needs a spouse who makes more than she does she shouldn’t, uh, marry one who does not make and never has made more money than she does. That’s gaslighting your own self.
But I have to say, I am always surprised that people aren’t - I don’t know - satisfied? grateful? to be paying only $200 to live somewhere and don’t just...let that roll.
A person who is mad about $200 in living expenses might be a signal to the homeowner that said person won’t exactly care for the home or her with the kind of diligence she hopes for. It’s about “rent” but is really about commitment.
And on the flip side, someone concerned about giving “you” $200 is concerned about something else. Y’all should figure out what that is and until you do? Have a lease agreement or a prenup.
