How about using the phrase Intimate Relationship? This is defined in Wikipedia as:

An intimate relationship is an interpersonal relationship with a great deal of physical and/or emotional intimacy. It is usually characterized by romantic or passionate love and attachment. Sexuality may or may not be involved.

This could potentially cover both short-term and long-term relationships.

As I changed the drawing for the symbols by adding a little house for cohabitation, I think the long-term relationship is covered in the cohabitation.

I discussed this topic once before, and I cannot agree that cohabitation and long-term relationship are essentially the same, although there may be some overlap. The Wikipedia definition of cohabitation is:

Cohabitation is defined as an emotional, physical, and intellectually intimate relationship which includes a common living place and which exists without the benefit of legal, cultural, or religious sanction

The important qualification here is a common living place, which is not necessary for a long-term relationship. I think Ron's discussion on this point was very well put.

No, I had not forgotten about this.  What is needed to change some of those relationships is a file format change.  So far, the file format has not changed since Beta 16.

I have changed the drawing of the family relationships to draw a house for cohabitation.

I am open to suggestions to improve this list, yet keep it simple and without confusion.  I asked several individuals their advice on the concubine and the best answer came from Ron (September 2006):

Concubine - surely this is synonymous with cohabitation, except that it does not describe the relationship but the status of the female partner. This is exactly the same as the earlier issue of what to call partners in a relationship - spouse, wife, common-law wife, mate, partner, husband, lover,mistress or even concubine. Perhaps there could be a 'title' property on the 'parent' (or should it be 'partner'?) pedigree-link allowing this to be specified. However it should not be included as a relationship type.

Mistress/Lover - Mistress again describes the status of the female partner, not the relationship itself. Does 'Lover' differ from 'Dating' ? - dating is perhaps a short-term thing, whereas 'Lover' could be a short or long-term relationship. There is the implication with 'Lover' that one or both partners are married to other people so 'Extramarital affair' is a better description in my opinion. If it is not an extramarital affair then it is covered by 'dating' or 'Long term relationship'.

Long Term Relationship/Committed relationship. I believe this is not covered elsewhere and complements 'Dating'. 'Dating' should perhaps be 'Dating or short term relationship' and this option 'Committed or long-term relationship'.

As I changed the drawing for the symbols by adding a little house for cohabitation, I think the long-term relationship is covered in the cohabitation.  I am thinking of renaming cohabitation to cohabitation (boyfriend/girlfriend) and remove ex-boyfriend/ex-girlfriend from dating.  Maybe dating could be renamed seeing (like, "Joe is seeing this girl", meaning he is visiting her from time to time).  English is my second language.  Any feedback is welcome.    Thanks.

I apparently need to ask about this again, since I haven't got an answers yet. Are you still working on adding these three relationships?

I completely forgot about it.  I have noted the following 3 relationships to my "todo" list:
  1. Concubinage
  2. Mistress/lover
  3. Long term relationship/committed relationship

I need to find a symbol to draw there relationships and we are ready to go Smile.

Are you still working on this? Or have you forgotten it again Smile Now there have been two updates since you wrote this and it has still not been added.

How about a dashed black line, maybe with dots for concubinage, since it is often an inferior form of marriage.  The committed relationship could be a solid blue line.  I just don't know about the mistress lover though.

If you think that, why is it that it has still not been added after more than 9 months?

I think a mistress / lover relationship should be added.

If you think that, why is it that it has still not been added after more than 9 months?

I also, like the user above, miss the relationship option "long-term relationship". If the trouble is what to call it, then why not simply call it "long term relationship"? Or what about steady (or permanent) relationship or "committed relationship"? I personally prefer "long-term relationship" or "committed relationship".

It looks like you are using pre-Beta 15 report templates with the Beta 15 GenoPro executable and the two are incompatible. Have you changed the default location where GenoPro looks for tempates?  If so update that location with the templates that were installed with Beta15.
