So do I, even though I have never married. (Eventually I will settle down and take the plunge, but it's not a high priority right now.)
When I took my obligation as a Master Mason I swore to uphold the institution of marriage, not just to the female relatives of a brother Mason, but to others as well.
I swore the chastity to shield
Of woman true and tender;
Of Mason’s widow, wife and child,
His mother, sister undefiled;
Each pure and innocent whose love
Makes Mason’s homes like that above,
I am their sworn defender.
