Relationships Events
I have a suggestion regarding Relationship Events. At the moment we can choose the following events:
Annulment
Common law Marriage
Devorce
Lived together
Marriage
Could we get added another one which could be called (or likewise): Never married or lived together
I miss that oppportunity. I often find children, in the Danish parish registers for births, where the parents never got married or ever have lived together.
Best wishes

This feature already exists, but as it's specifically not a relationship, it is not in the relationship area. Instead, it is one of the choices under Other Information: you can add a Fact of "No Couple Relationships".
If the person did have couple relationships, just not with a specific person, then don't enter that person as a spouse. If two people had a child together but were not otherwise a couple, then you can add them separately as parents of that child.

Thank you @HvidkjaerJohnGregers and thank you @Julia Szent-Györgyi for pointing that out. While not exactly what you asked for, would the solution Julia mentioned solve your problem?
Also, we would like to encourage people submitting ideas to take some time and vote on other ideas they see and agree with in the community. Doing so can reiterate to product management that an idea is important to the community. Just click the little the up or down triangle found at the bottom of an idea.

FYI
I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...
Just in passing ...
Firstly ...
Great suggested enhancement ...
Secondly ...
Further to; and, in support of, what 'Julia' has already proffered ...
You are not alone ...
What you suggest is NOT new ...
In fact, such, has been "Requested", COUNTLESS times, over the, MANY; Many, many, YEARS ...
Finally ...
As, 'Julia" has indicated ...
The has been, the MORE recent enhancement, of the "Custom Fact", of "No Couple Relationship", under the "Other Information" Section, for individuals/person.
Furthermore ...
It certainly would be good, to be able to have, "Relationship Facts", such as, "Never Married"; and, "Never Lived Together", under the "Relationship Facts", for a "Couple Relationship".
Currently, we ONLY have the availability of "No Children", under the "Relationship Facts", for a "Couple Relationship"; despite, the COUNTLESS "Requests", for the likes of, "Never Married"; and, "Never Lived Together" (and, MORE).
As an aside ...
Of course ...
The BEST course of action, is to just LEAVE, the "Relationship Events", under a "Couple Relationship"; as, BLANK (ie. NOTHING), in such cases; where, a Couple, DID NOT, "Marry"; and/or, "Live Together".
Such a "Relationship", is a "Couple Relationship" ONLY; as, (simply) the Parents, of a Child.
Just, DO NOT forget, to put copious "Notes"; EVERYWHERE, to the fact, that the "Couple", DID NOT, "Marry"; and/or, "Live Together".
Just my thoughts.
I know, that this certainly does not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective; and, another avenue to pursue.
