You are a team and sometimes not everything is going to be clearly 50/50. What I do personally is calculate the difference in salary between my partner and I. I make 70% more so I’m paying 70% of the expenses.

What if your BF gets fired would you still force him to split everything or would you cover for him? Splitting everything doesn’t really make sense sometimes.

This is just because I work with math and finance and while you’re system is a good place to start it should consider your expendable money after income and normal living expenses, for example if all have 20K of expenses somebody who makes 30k has $10k to use and somebody who makes 40k has 20 to use so with this example it should be split 2/3 1/3 were your system would be 25/75
