- aaaaaaaaata 4y agoIt seemed clear they were saying common law marriages (assumed after a period of time) aren't respected there.
- soco 4y agoIn which country a marriage is assumed after a period of time? That's news to me...
- TheCoelacanth 4y agoSome parts of the US still have a concept called "common-law marriage"[1]. Most of the west seems to have abolished it by the 1700s, but there have been a few jurisdictions that are stragglers.

- cassianoleal 4y agoActually I meant it as in "partners for life", i.e. the idea that 2 people can partner up and be loyal and faithful to each other orthogonally to the lawful status of the relationship.
