"Can't be married in real life? Try Second Life!"

How do I make someone my partner?

Second Life couples can make their relationships official. Whether you're married or just connected, you can designate your partner on your profile inworld and make your relationship visible to the rest of the community. Creating a partnership costs each partner L$10.

1. Go to the Partners page.
2. Enter your Partner's First and Last Name.
3. Type in your Proposal to your to-be partner. It can be a love letter, song lyrics, or whatever suits the both of you best.
4. Click Send Proposal.

   

Your potential partner is notified at the email address they use with their Second Life account. They have seven days to accept, and once they do, your names will appear in each other's profile.

• The partnership email should be received in seconds. Here's what it looks like. Please do check your spam folder and other email filters to make sure it isn't being hidden.

If you receive a partnership request you want to decline, you can also do that on the Partners page.

Note: This video tutorial shows an old website design, but the basic way it works is still the same.

How do I end my partnership?

The person who "divorces" is charged L$25.

1. Go to the Partners page.
2. Check the box that says "I, (your name), would like to dissolve my partnership with (your partner's name)."
3. Click Submit. Your partnership is dissolved and your now-ex-partner is notified.

Can I be partnered again after a divorce?

We understand matters of the heart can be haughty. Inform your partner you want to get back together — apologizing profusely and a meaningful gift often help — and send them a fresh partnership request.

All the best in your new beginning.

Does being partnered give us a special status?

Partnership is a vanity display for social purposes only and doesn't alter inworld permissions, group abilities, support benefits, and soforth. For example, if you're on a Concierge account and your partner is a Basic account, they won't receive Concierge service. We can't divulge private details of your partner's account, nor does being partnered entitle you to share accounts.

Does my Second Life surname change if I partner?

No. Your name stays the same.

Can I find out when I was partnered?

Your profiles in-Viewer doesn't show you this. However, if you kept your original partnership request, sent via email, then yes, you can relive that magic moment.
