My FH really wants us to get "married" at the courthouse asap, so that I can be on his insurance and for tax purposes. He doesn't want to tell anyone, he doesn't want us to wear wedding rings, he basically says that it will just be paperwork and not a real wedding. My gut is telling me that this is wrong and that we shouldn't lie to our family and friends, even if, like he said, "it's just on paper." I've heard people on WW before talk about how this is an etiquette no-no, but what do y'all think? If we don't wear rings and pretend as if we are not really married, does it count?
