Not getting married sounds like a plan to avoid all that. However the law, or should I say 'common law' thought of people like you ahead of time. Heck in Alberta if you've lived long enough together you get the emotional and financial drain all the same as if you just went out and got the piece of paper. It's just that doing things your way makes life with traditionalist people like your father in common-law more difficult.
