Common law split-ups more often then not involve little to no legal hassles unless you own something together. There's a joke somewhere in here about a lawyer advocating marriage

The biggest negative factor in any relationship is when there are children involved. this is probably because you can't just divide everything and each be on you bitter way.
I am by no means trying to give you advice or suggest you do something. You only get one life so live it however you please, however you do have your g/f and her family to consider and you should take their feelings into account since everything you do effects them in some way.

I have taken her feelings into account. I've told her I would completely understand if she wanted to leave because she needed a wedding. I think her dad needs to accept my beliefs and the fact that I treat his daughter better than 90% of other guys out there who maybe do believe in marriage. You'd think that would be what's important to him.
