I waited until I was 40 y/o to get married. I just celebrated my first year anniversary. I never intended to get married. It just happened. They say you will know when you meet the right person and I got lucky and did.
To me and my wife it is more than just a piece of paper. We never lived together prior to getting married and it is working out great. There was an adjustment of course but if you are truly committed to each other, you can work through those adjustments.
I think what ever works for a committed couple should be good enough regardless if they live together before getting married or even if marriage isn't an option for them. The most important thing is that you are happy.
