∙ 13y ago- Both same sex partners were married and should believe in their own hearts they are still married under the law of the State they got married in. It does not matter if they are not considered legally married in another State because they have taken their vows and are married. It's a state of mind so they should run with what they know and what is in their hearts and they have nothing to prove. Life just goes on.
