That was called common law marriage and it was abolished by statute in New Jersey in 1939.Since common law marriage ended, there are no longer any laws with guidelines for determining whether support should be awarded from one unmarried partner to another when their long-term relationship ends. common law marriage is one in which the parties have lived together for a long period of time, and they hold themselves out to the public as husband and wife.
