   Yes, the "Domestic partnership" is a legal thing.  Probably not under that   
   name, though.  So two people can basically share their lives and have all the   
   legal protections/responsibilities of a couple that is "married".   
      
   But such an arrangement might not be supported by all companies when it comes   
   to benefits.  But that would be pretty rare today.
