[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well it sounds like you are not getting legally married — so you actually are doing exactly what all the advice here is telling you.

But, you are still making a ton of excuses for this guy’s poor life choices. I hope it works out, but it will be good that you are not legally married if this doesn’t work out.[/quote]

OP, what kind of service does one have in a church that is not legally binding? [/quote]

NP here. I imagine the kind where you don’t sign the marriage certificate? The church cares that you pay the fee and agree to premarital counseling or whatever terms they have. After we got married we had to take the marriage certificate to the courthouse before we were legally married. It would be easy to skip that step and just have the church wedding and reception.

This seems so weird and dishonest to me. So your bio family, 'church family', and all your friends will *think* you're legally married, but in reality you are not. A very religious woman in my young widows' group did this because she was marrying a similar type of financial dolt (though the widow put all her ire on the ex-wife)

In 2021, does anyone really care if people just live together? OP has likely already set herself up for enough trouble buying a house with this guy.[/quote]

LOL
They are both immature if they do that sort of thing. Either be bf/gf, or get married and support each other.

Don't have a pretend wedding, that's just foolish![/quote]
