Yes and no: yes, if your civil union and marriage are both to the same person; no if they are to different people and both are recognized in your state. If you are in a state where your civil union is not recognized and you are married to a different person (presumably one of the opposite sex), then your civil union does not legally exist, only your marriage does.
In Oklahoma, a civil union is not recognized by the state, while marriage is legally recognized and provides couples with legal rights and responsibilities. Marriage offers additional legal benefits and protections, such as inheritance rights, access to healthcare decisions, and eligibility for tax benefits, that are not available to couples in a civil union.
The address given by the president to Congress is known as the State of the Union address. It is delivered annually and is used to update Congress and the American public on the current state of the nation, as well as to outline the president's legislative agenda and priorities.

This varies from state to state, but generally they are the same as for marriage. Both parties must be of sufficient age and of sound mind. The parties may not be too closely related to each other by blood. Neither party may be legally married to another person, nor already by a party to a civil union with someone else. The couple must comply with requirements for producing acceptable identification, paying applicable fees and obeying any statutory waiting period. After obtaining a civil union license, the civil union must be solemnized before an authorized officiant.

The answer to your question is "secede."
South Carolina
North Carolina did not "refuse to join the Union." The state joined the Union in 1789, becoming the 12th state to accede to the Constitution. The state attempted to leave the Union with a secession vote in 1861 because President Lincoln called upon the state to invade South Carolina, already a member of the Confederacy. The attempt to leave the Union failed as a result of Union military victory.
