GF lives with me and we both smoke and drink quite a bit. Like every night. At first in the relationship, she was fine pitching in about 1/4 of the price of the weed we would smoke and we'd split liquor store bills.
However, recently with the whole pandemic, she's basically smoking all day long since she's furloughed. Also drinking quite a bit, and she's developed a taste for my favorite whiskey-- which is a bit expensive. She'll start crushing the bottle way faster than I'm comfortable with, and I'm having to hit up my dealer more often than I'd like because she's toking the entire day while I'm working.
I've been suggesting she should throw in a few bucks-- very mild suggestion, like $50 on a $300 bag of weed, or $20 on a $70 bottle of liquor, but she contends that her buying groceries occasionally (which in my opinion, we split pretty much evenly, although she's picked up most the past month since I've had an injury) and doing sexual things absolves her of the need to consider pitching in for the weed and booze that she obviously consumes more of than I do, despite paying the full price.
For context, I probably make about 70% more than her, although she's probably taking in about what I make given the expanded unemployment benefits. She also does not pay rent to live here and I generally pay for most recreational activities we do.
Generally I find the principle of her consuming more of an ounce of weed or a handle of liquor than I do, despite me paying the full price, a bit upsetting and her reaction to me asking made me kinda sad.
Any way I can try to approach this without her getting mad at me?
tl;dr: GF is really into boozing and smoking my weed and doesn't want to pay, insists a couple grocery runs and sex means she shouldn't pay.
