How fair is that?
You still have to go through the legal process to be granted these rights. The exact same way you have to for either common law or normal marriage.

Not to mention the very notion that you trust somebody enough that you want them to have all of the rights they would have if you were married, but you don't want to actually marry them is a little odd to say the least.
