In the court is He says and She says. He can claim that --- the rent and household expense are conditional gifts on a future marriage. If they are not eventually married (does not matter whoes's not willing to marry), she should pay the cost back.

Certainly, that is in thoery, I did not heard any guy actually ask the girl to pay back. Most case, the guy pays the total household expense, He might do it not out of love but out of self-protection. By doing so, he prevent the girl claim common-law-spouse compensates against him in the future.

I know a guy, he lived with a girl for 8 years. From she was 22 to 30 (the best years of a woman's life). They break up. The girl moved out with only her suitcases, a television table and a book shelf. If the girl had pay any bill (telephone, electricity, not necessary equal amount), she would be treated as a common-law spouse. But guy paid the everythiny. First few years was because the guy had a job and she did not. Then, after the guy bought a small house, he paid all the bills knowingly that he could dump her at no cost someday, and he did.

Girls, beware of guys that pay every expense for living together. You may think you pay expenses by doing more share of houseworks, but the judge doesnot think so. There is no free lunch.

Also, a reminder for boys and girls --- normally the diamond ring for engagement should be return to the guy, if they breakup later. BUT, if the diamond ring is given at the girl's birthday or at a holiday( like chrismax), the girl can argue that the ring is a birthday gift, thus she does not need to return it.

For tuition, if you are in school fulltime and need the boy/girl friend help to pay the tuition, he/she can claim a percentage of your future income. Best way to do, borrow a student loan from a third party, and ask the boy/girl friend to pay the loan. So that your liability to your boy/girl friend is limited up to the loan amount.
