[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I break up with my partner, we will split our stuff, work out our custody and child support arrangements, and go our separate ways. We will also change our various powers of attorney and change documents that relate to finances, property, and health. We won't have to wait around a year and pay Big Brother to give us permission. Been there, done that. It was ridiculous. Marriage is not the answer or preference for everyone. [/quote] There are studies that say every time a person goes through a divorce they are much more likely to have another divorce. I'm sure it's the same for cohabitating for many years and then breaking up. The chance of another break-up is greater. I have a slight issue with people not getting married because it seems to cost society a lot to take care of people who are by themselves as they age and take care of their children. I wouldn't judge anyone though. I did also think it was possibly unfortunate when friends cohabited for 3+ years and then finally decided their partner wasn't going to marry them. By this time they were in their late 20's to 30's. Most of these friends haven't married and are now in their 40's and 50's. Maybe they are happy without children and a husband or maybe they still wish they had their 20's back to date more people instead of moving in with a guy they probably knew from the start was unlikely to marry them. They move in different circles from us now traveling and going out late so we don't see them much with kids but are happy they're enjoying life.[/quote]
