We agreed to split everything. My partner of six years earns triple what I do.

Side A (age 22)
Rent, food, holidays — all split down the middle. I clear about a third of what my partner of six years does, so "equal" means I have nothing left at the end of the month and they have $1,200. Equal isn't fair here.
Side B (age 16)
I earn more because I made choices that were miserable for years. Splitting by income turns my salary into a shared asset and my career into a joint decision. I'd rather pay for the extras and keep the base equal.
