...if you DON'T want to BE "legally" married, then WHY the hell would you want to call your mate "HUSBAND" or "WIFE" ........?
I'm not talking about 'gay' or 'straight', I'm WITH all of those that *CHOOSE* to make it LEGAL.

it's OK don't be upset, but I think that people sometimes prefer the illusion to the reality, aggravating

Because throughout the history of time, becoming legally married is a pretty recent thing. Before it was a religious ceremony (every religion has their own), now that isn't even required. If I live with someone and have a family with that person, and fill the role of a wife, I can consider myself a wife. If I don't pay a couple hundred dollars for a legal document, that is a technicality.

I don't know. The whole upside to being married is to use the terms: husband, wife, spouse. Otherwise: girlfriend, boyfriend, live-in, f-buddy, or fiance are used.

I'm not married, been with my man 13 years, but I DON'T call him my husband, because he's not.
