“My Husband Charges Me Rent” – should I pay?

What would you do if you got married, moved into a house your husband owns…and, he charges you rent? That's the predicament that one listener is in right now. She wrote into the podcast to get relationship advice from the Trufants to help navigate this sticky situation. Here is her question, "I’ve been married to my husband for a little over a year. We decided before we got married that I would move into his house and rent my place.  What’s bothering me is since we’ve been living together he charges me rent. So half of his mortgage. I also contribute to other bills and groceries which is totally fine. My friends and family think it’s strange that he would charge me for rent and I’m his wife. Also, my name isn’t on the mortgage.  Am I overthinking or are my feelings valid?"
