No. He was once betrothed, but the relationship never developed further due to some meddling by the girl's mother who felt that Chopin's increasingly poor health made him 'unsuitable' for marriage to her daughter.

Chopin had a teenage infatuation with a couple of girls that he was too shy to progress and finally he had a relationship with the French Novelist Aurore Dudevant (nom-de-plume Georges Sand). This relationship had a basis of love and mutual artistic admiration and lasted for many years, but they never married.

Aurore is to be thanked for providing the peace, tranquility and means that allowed Chopin to create many of his finest masterpieces - without whose support these may never have been composed.

Sadly the relationship gradually fell apart, for complex reasons, a few years before he died. It could be said the anguish of this parting may have hastened Chopin's deteriorating health as the support and means that she had provided were no longer available to Chopin.
