Good on you - takes some doing not just to go with the herd.....

Took me three years before I could utter the "H" word in public and even now I get "You're wearing your ring!". I lost it for a few years and only found it when moving.

People have even given up asking me when I'm going to have babies now. More or less.

Saying that, I am very happily married, just all the expectations and assumptions that went with it. Even my mother gets my name wrong as a protest about me not changing my name - but she got my married name wrong too so it sort of failed.

The laws regarding bigamy are a major pain eh!

Besides, you reach a certain age, and most of your buddies get paired off, so the choice is a bit limited!!!

Actually it's illegal there, too. But the law turns a blind eye based on the fact that if they arrested all the guilty - they would run out of room in the prisons, as half the state would be in there!
