That was beacuse my bf was going to move in too.. My cousin said that he has to find a job but the only thing is I havent talked to my bf about it... I know he was going to be there a lot but I don't know about moving in... The thing is if he dosent move in that leaves me paying 400 all by myself.. I dont know what to do.. Is it fair?

Hey there ... its a tough situation to be in ... the only advice i can give you is to talk to both your boyfriend and your cousin and he boyfriend. First of all do you definately want your boyfriend moving in with you and if so is it for the right reasons? then once your sure ... ask him ... the worst that can happen is for him to say no. If he really wants to he will try everything he can to make it happen. If he does say no however then you need to sit down with your cousin and her boyfriend and explain the situation ... you don't even have to tell them your boyfriend was never moving in ... you could just say he isnt able to or has had a change of heart. just explain that it will be hard for you to cover the 400 rent on your own and see if you can maybe split it 3 ways instead. you could even suggest finding a lodger to cover some of the rent if there are enough rooms?hope this has helped in some way and good luck!
