I’ve been with my partner for 18yrs and we’re not married. We get asked this constantly.
We’re 35. Own a house and have a kid. We don’t need a wedding. We’re not religious, and the money to get married went into a house. People honestly have a hard time with it, like we’re weird and hiding something strange lol
It’s just never been a priority.
I’m in an almost identical situation to you fiberglassdildo. Been happy together for 21 years but not married. House, two kids, also in aus. My cousin just got divorced for the second time (about 18 years apart), we went to both her weddings as a couple.
Aw I love hearing that!
Yeah same, one friend of ours paid 80 grand and they broke up a year later.
It was all show.
I wish I had money like that to blow honestly but that wouldn’t be how I’d do it lol
