>>hahaha ... nah, we're both just big procrastinators. <g> Living together for 8 years, that little piece of paper that says "you're legally married" doesn't seem to matter all that much at our age. <g> We'll get around to it when we get around to it.

>Don't worry, I would be the last to harp on this subject. I have two old friends who have probably been together for 20 years now and similarly see no need for legal blessing. They both say the same thing every time I have heard anyone ask if they are going to get married: "Why would be want to mess up a good thing?" They don't say "mess" but you get the idea <g>.

One of my nieces and her guy have been together for maybe 7 or 8 years. Whenever anyone asks if they're ever going to get married, they say, "Probably".
