<human>: I have been living with my boyfriend for over 10 years and we have a great relationship.

While I love my parents, they have an "old standing rule" that boyfriends sleep in the separate bedroom until marriage. This was fine when we were teenagers/very early twenties with young boyfriends. However, both of my sister's married young. Both my older and younger sister got married at 21 and I have been living with my boyfriend since 06'. I think everyone can safely say this is not some fleeting romance.

I'm in my thirties, with the same gay I was living with for 10 years yet they tell me point blank "Well, you aren't married so you can't stay in the same room." I don't believe in marriage nor am I ever going to get married. When I asked why this is, despite that I have been in a loving relationship and living together for 10 years why me spending money and obtain a license to say we are "offically together" changes anything? All it makes me feel is slighted because they choose to see me as still a teenager and not respect our relationship.
Thoughts?

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: Mom and dad still I need a marriage certificate despite living with my boyfriend for over 10 years now in order to stay in the same bed at their place.
