Is this something you've done yourself (either cohabing or getting married is fine), or is this more theoretical / speculative?

Something I am currently doing and have been for the past 5+ years after getting divorced.

Ah okay thanks for replying. That's great to hear you're speaking from experience then. Did you need to convince your spouse of it or was your spouse for it all along? Sometime I think having these conversations is hard. Also do you act as if you're married or is the relationship "looser" in many ways (like living apart)? I'm genuinely curious because I do think the institution of marriage is a little dated in many ways.
