Well the reply arrived. He will do whatever I need him to do, but thought the rent was high.
Try to indicate to him (hard not to sound sarcastic) that rents in Melbourne are averaging that amount per week unless you want a 40 year old shoebox for one person and that I am very limited due to the pets.
He responded by asking once again if I had done a budget and that he needed to know car loans etc to work out his finances. Told him would do budget once house sorted as I had indicated to him previously, gave him quick breakdown of loans also indicated costs relating to D that he would have to help with.
Have not yet heard back. He played the guilt trip factor by mentioning the rent was high, I immediately thought to myself that I should perhaps try harder to find something cheaper (old doormat attitude in me coming back) then snapped myself out of it and thought no, D & I don't deserve to live in something sub standard just because H has decided he wants to be the single party guy.
