British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Kuhberg v. Hall, 2015 BCSC 2230 (CanLII):
Mr. Justice Groves goes on to note that there is no checklist of characteristics that must be present in order for there to be a marriage-like relationship and that individuals in spousal relationships, whether married or not, will structure their relationships differently (see Austin v. Goerz, 2007 BCCA 586 at para. 58).
