Navigating the Waters of De Facto Relationships in Sydney

Introduction: In the bustling city of Sydney, where cultures converge and opportunities abound, modern relationships have taken on diverse forms. One such form is the "de facto" relationship – a unique bond that holds legal and personal implications, often referred to as the Australian equivalent of a common-law marriage. As couples increasingly opt for this alternative to traditional marriage, it's essential to understand what de facto relationships entail, how they are recognized legally, and the rights and responsibilities they bring to the table.

Defining De Facto Relationships: A de facto relationship is a partnership in which two people, regardless of gender, live together on a genuine domestic basis without being married. This can involve couples who are same-sex or opposite-sex, making Australia a pioneer in recognizing and legalizing such relationships. It's important to note that the duration of cohabitation, while significant, is just one factor considered when determining a de facto relationship.

Legal Recognition: De facto relationships are legally recognized in Australia under the Family Law Act 1975. This recognition has far-reaching consequences, including property rights, financial obligations, and access to social benefits. In Sydney, a city known for its high cost of living, understanding these legal implications becomes paramount.

Rights and Responsibilities: Just like married couples, those in de facto relationships have rights and responsibilities that extend across various aspects of life:

Property: In the event of a separation, the assets and liabilities acquired during the course of a de facto relationship are subject to a property settlement, similar to a divorce settlement in a marriage. This involves a fair division of shared property and financial resources.

Financial Support: De facto partners may have financial responsibilities towards each other, particularly if one partner is economically disadvantaged. This includes potential spousal maintenance, ensuring that neither partner suffers undue financial hardship post-separation.

Parental Rights: De facto couples who have children together share parental rights and responsibilities, just as in a traditional marriage. This includes decisions about child custody, visitation rights, and financial support for the children's upbringing.

Social Benefits: De facto partners can access many of the same social benefits and entitlements as married couples, such as health care and superannuation benefits.

Proving a De Facto Relationship: To assert the existence of a de facto relationship, several factors are considered, including the length of cohabitation, the nature and extent of common residence, financial interdependence, and the presence of a sexual relationship. This assessment can vary, but it generally involves demonstrating that the relationship is genuine and enduring.

Conclusion: As Sydney continues to evolve into a melting pot of cultures and lifestyles, de facto relationships have become a significant part of the social fabric. With legal recognition and implications akin to traditional marriages, couples in de facto relationships need to be aware of their rights and responsibilities. Navigating the waters of such relationships might seem complex, but understanding the legal landscape and seeking professional advice can help couples build a strong foundation for their shared future in this vibrant city.

The Power of De Facto Relationships: Nurturing Love Beyond Labels

Introduction:

In a world where love takes various forms, de facto relationships have emerged as a powerful and meaningful way for couples to build lasting connections. De facto relationships, characterized by their unique dynamics and personal commitment, offer couples the opportunity to cultivate deep bonds without the formalities of traditional marriage. In this article, we explore the significance of de facto relationships and how they empower couples to embrace love on their own terms.

Defying Conventional Norms:

De facto relationships challenge the traditional norms and expectations surrounding love and commitment. They provide couples with an alternative path, free from the societal pressures often associated with marriage. By stepping outside the boundaries of conventional relationships, couples in de facto partnerships can craft their own narrative, shaping their bond in a way that aligns with their values, aspirations, and personal preferences.

Freedom to Define the Relationship:

One of the greatest strengths of de facto relationships lies in the freedom to define the terms of the partnership. Unlike marriage, which often comes with predefined roles and expectations, de facto relationships allow couples to design their own relationship structure. Whether it's living together, sharing financial responsibilities, or making joint decisions, partners in de facto relationships can customize their commitment to suit their unique circumstances and desires.

Cultivating Emotional Intimacy and Trust:

At the heart of any successful relationship, including de facto partnerships, lies emotional intimacy and trust. De facto couples cultivate deep connections through open communication, vulnerability, and mutual understanding. Without the legal obligations that come with marriage, partners are encouraged to build trust organically, creating a solid foundation of emotional support and security. This emphasis on emotional intimacy fosters a safe space for partners to express their true selves, encouraging personal growth and self-discovery within the relationship.

Flexibility and Adaptability:

De facto relationships offer a remarkable level of flexibility and adaptability. Unlike the rigid structure of marriage, de facto partnerships allow couples to navigate life's challenges and changes with greater ease. Whether it's career advancements, relocations, or personal growth, de facto relationships can accommodate these transitions without compromising the strength of the bond. This flexibility enables partners to support each other's individual aspirations while nurturing their shared connection.

Equality and Partnership:

De facto relationships promote equality and partnership between partners. Freed from the gender roles and expectations often associated with marriage, couples can establish a relationship based on shared responsibility and collaboration. Both individuals have the opportunity to contribute their unique strengths, talents, and perspectives to create a balanced and harmonious partnership. In a de facto relationship, decisions are made collectively, and both partners' voices are equally valued and respected.

Recognition and Legal Protection:

In many jurisdictions, de facto relationships are now recognized legally, offering couples certain rights and protections similar to those of married couples. This recognition affirms the importance and validity of de facto relationships in society. It provides couples with legal safeguards such as property rights, financial protection, and access to benefits. This acknowledgment ensures that couples in de facto relationships can enjoy the peace of mind that comes with legal protection while navigating their shared lives.

Celebrating Love's Diversity:

De facto relationships celebrate the diversity of love and relationships. They acknowledge that love can thrive and flourish in various forms and structures. De facto partnerships provide a beautiful and valid option for couples seeking to build a meaningful, committed connection outside of traditional marriage. By embracing the uniqueness of each relationship, de facto partnerships demonstrate the power of love to transcend labels and societal expectations.

Conclusion:

De facto relationships offer couples a path to love and commitment that defies traditional norms. They provide freedom, flexibility, and the opportunity to shape a unique partnership that aligns with individual values and aspirations. De facto relationships nurture emotional intimacy, trust, and equality, fostering personal growth and supporting shared goals. As society continues to evolve, it is essential to recognize and celebrate the significance and beauty of de facto relationships as they contribute to the rich tapestry of love and human connections.

ngl seeing orbot and cubot as, like, at all occupying a similar “parent/child” dynamic with eggman as you could interpret with him and metal sonic is funny as fuck to me. they’re henchmen. orbot n cubot’s dynamic with eggman will always be that of boss/henchmen, to me. inventor/creation is the inherent base, as with any of eggman’s robots, but to my taste i think orbot n cubot’s relationship with eggman is always gonna have an undercurrent of Work, rather than familial, for anything other than the bit

Would you say raph has been parentfied? Because he’s the one who had to praise Leo when splinter didn’t. It’s the vibe I got as an older sibling myself I was doing most of the parenting my drunk ass parents couldn’t do.

[ cw: parentification / ]

Personally, and I know it goes against a big part of the fandom to say this, but I don’t really think so! There are certainly instances where Raph takes charge and displays parent-y behaviors but in my opinion it’s not enough for me to say he was parentified as much as the popular take says. More often he’s displayed as a protective older brother and acts as such, not so much a parentified sibling.

Not gonna say it’s wrong to see him as such though! It’s just not the vibes I personally gathered from watching him.

I’m sorry you had to go through that, though, no child should be forced to parent their sibling.

I have just now finished the companion quests.

I would like to say:

- March I love you

- Welt best grampa

- Welt we know you're enjoying playing pretend. Hush

- LUOCHA WHAT IS GOING ON

- Diting my love

- March I love you

- Nothing could have prepared me for the way they pronounced Imbibitor Lunae. I'm- Why-

- YANQING BBY

- I swear to god if I don't see a sibling dynamic between Dan Heng and Yanqing at the end of all this chaos I'm gonna sue everyone here. This is a threat

- The way I screamed at the Blade and Imbibitor Lunae lore crumbs-

- Yet another npc bites the dust

- Also I didn't know we would get the new stuff TODAY so I was shocked when I saw the banner

- I didn't want Luocha but now I tried him out and it's a NEED

- I'm not gonna get him but I can dream

And yeah that's it

osamu dazai and fyodor dostoevsky harbor similar dependencies on, reverence for, and guilt with regard to women that people love to blandly misconstrue as unqualified misogyny.

but their relationships with women are more nuanced, self-aware, and pitiable than that, rendering them as endearing as they are solipsistic, which I consider wholly less acceptable than the systemic prejudice implicit in misogyny. they would be less obnoxious if they were just misogynistic; instead, they're prone to compunctious benevolent sexism, except for when they shelter in misogyny as a maladjusted flight response.

i wouldnt put it as a public facing label but kinda vibe with "post-transmasc" as part of the gender experience.

i feel like im at a point where i may be performing the definitional motions of trans masculinity, but my daily experience of gender feels unrelated to both masculinity and transition-as-an-act. i'm still de facto trans and transmasc, but it simply doesn't feel relevant to identify as such.

at the same time, i'm only able to be agnostic about my gender because i was and am transmasc. my present gender experience is only accessible through my transmasculinity. so, post-transmasc.

Pine-car Derby Meet cute

The gymnasium was packed with chairs all facing one of the two pine-car derby tracks underneath the basketball hoops. They were only a few races into the derby, and even the last couple entrants were still having their cars weighed and assessed before being queued up for the bracket.

“I’m gonna get some gum,” Travis shoved a shoe-box full of sand-paper, powdered graphite, and spare wheels into his older brother’s arms. “Come get me if my car’s up?”

“You’re not until the seventh heat, dude.” Trevor hoisted the box under his arm and gave his brother a light slap on the shoulder. “And you better not be there till then.”

“Can I have money?”

“Oh, yeah, here you go.” Trevor had purposely cashed-out his whole paycheck from the University Library to fund this trip… and it’s concessions. “Buy something better than gum, yeah?” The twelve year old didn’t reply as he turned on his heel and hurtled for the concession window on the other side of the gym.

Trevor surveyed the situation. The seats closest to the track were taken, but he didn’t really care about anybody’s car but Travis’, so no need to be close. He scanned the open seats for just a moment before selecting exactly where to set down.

“You’re not saving this whole row for a big family or something?” Trevor said, settling into an empty row right behind the cute guy who was sitting by himself. The guy turned around.

“Only seat I’m saving is this one,” he gestured to the folding chair on his left, where sat a beat-up shoebox like the one Trevor was carrying under his arm.

“Who’s racing?”

“My nephew. You?”

“Little brother,” Trevor held out his hand. “I’m Trevor, by the way.”

“Ephraim.” The guy shook his hand with a firm grip… soft hands though. “It’s my first derby, what should I be expecting?”

“I used to do these when I was a kid, can’t imagine they’d changed much,” Trevor leaned forward conspiratorily. “It’ll take about three hours to do all the brackets, but you can tell exactly which cars are gonna end up in the finals, because they’re just the lazy wedges.” He pointed to a shiny green wedge on wheels that had just flown down the race track, leaving its competition behind.

“Don’t tell my nephew,” Ephraim winced, playfully. “He didn’t make a wedge.”

“Good for him, I say.” The two laughed and managed to make breezy small talk. Ephraim was at State for piano performance. Trevor played intra-mural lacrosse. Derbies past and all the rest.

“Trevor,” Trevor turned and saw Travis running up with a fist full of dollar bills and a mouth full of Double-Bubble. Behind him, a kid just a little younger trailed after, concentrating on sinking his teeth into a giant soft pretzel. “Aww man,” Travis rolled his eyes when he spotted Trevor, turned to his friend. “My brother’s hitting on some dude again. C’mon, let’s go find Matthew.” The two kids ran off towards the door to the gym.

“Well well well,” Ephraim smirked under bushy brows. “Do you regularly, uh, cruise the pine-car derby?”

“My brother’s full of it,” Trevor awkwardly rubbed his palms over the seam down the side of his jeans. “He can’t see that you’re clearly more impressive than ‘some dude’.”

“Wow,” Ephraim intoned dryly, but his lip curled into a smile. “Very smooth. You’ve known me for five minutes and you think you can tell that, huh?”

“I could tell that before I sat down,” Trevor blurted. He managed to hold eye contact and grin.

“Well,” Ephraim seemed to think it over playfully. “Your brother was hanging out with my nephew, so I can get any info I need to hold over your head later.”

“I’m honored you would think to threaten me so soon into meeting me!”

“Oh shut up and come sit next to me.”

Love bombing is not a euphemism for "too much affection too soon," or "high desire for contact."

"Love bombing" is a term originally used in the context of cults to describe a deliberate and coordinated recruitment method that involved feigning friendship and interest in a potential recruit, via flattery, flirtation, physical affection, and very directed positive attention to everything the recruit says in order to lure them into the cult.

Since cults and abusive relationships operate in similar ways and use similar tactics, love bombing in an interpersonal relationship looks like manufacturing closeness in order to trap someone into a relationship in which the abuser has all the control.

And I know these days there's a million bullshit junky articles out there that make you think this is a symptom of cluster b personality disorders, but there is no way for you to be love bombing somebody without realizing it.

If you are an affectionate person and the level of affection and attention you give makes someone uncomfortable, you are not "accidentally" abusing them.

If you are uncomfortable with the level of affection and attention someone is paying you, they are not de facto abusing you.

Love bombing is about using someone's desire for human connection to fast track them into a situation you control that they will feel disinclined to leave.
