[quote=Anonymous]I've been with my boyfriend for 10 years and we have 2 kids.  I have no desire to get married.  I don't want the wedding or if we separate, to deal with a divorce.

He knows how I feel.  And every once in a while, he asks me if I'll marry him.  And the answer is yes.  Not because I want to get married but because it's important to him and if it's important to him, then it's important to me.

For us, it's never gone beyond the question.  But if he came home with the marriage license application, I would sign it.  And I would show up where ever he told me to, on whatever day, at whatever time.

I don't want a "wedding" and I don't think he does either.  But if that's what he wants, then I'm all in.  Again, not because it matters to me--but because it's important to him.

At this point in our relationship, the actual wedding would just be a formality.  One that I don't need.  But if he does, then he does.

So...if you need to be married, then that's what you need.  Your GF needs to respect that.  If she can't or won't, then it's time to move on.  But you need to decide what is more important to you--the life of being married or the actual legal document that says you are married.[/quote]
