Bit of a sticky one.
Does it matter whether its called a marriage or not.?
If one can have the same legal rights as a male female marriage then all is well.
Its the principles behind the UNION that matter.
My man and me have been together for 13 years in a monogamous relationship and are still deeply in love with each other, more so now actually.After Lust comes Love.
In our vows when we got hitched we promissed to love honour cherish etc before all others and to stay true. Well we already did that for twelve years anyway.
Yet,,,,people we know, in heterosexual relationships made the same kind of promises in similar circumstances and have very failed marriages in less than 5 years in a couple of cases.Few couples we know have lasted as long as us.
I believe relationships like ours should be held up as a testament to what marrige really is about.
