Do you even need to get a Common Law Marriage Divorce in Texas if the ex agrees on the split and you shared nothing do not have kids and agree you arent married anymore?

Texas: A man and woman who want to establish a common-law marriage must sign a form provided by the county clerk. In addition, they must (1) agree to be married, (2) cohabit, and (3) represent to others that they are married. If the common law marriage was recognized by the state you will need to get a legal divorce. Common law marriage makes you a legally married couple in every way. If you choose to end your marriage, you must get a divorce. Legally, common law married couples must play by all the same rules as "regular" married couples.
