I disagree, I think marriage is different, not because of anything as material as a title/jewel/etc. but because it (should) signify that the partners have made a permanent decision to be together forever, and are now done looking for anyone else. And out of respect to that I think people shouldn't mess with those that are married. If you haven't married someone yet, then obviously you don't feel strongly enough about them that you can't foresee possibly leaving them for someone else, and are still kind of keeping your options open. At least that's what it is supposed to be, even though most people don't really treat marriage that way anymore, which is why the tons of divorces and adultery cases.
