When you're trying to figure out if your relationship counts as a civil partnership in Zimbabwe, there are several key things to look at. Basically, it's about two people living together like a married couple without actually being legally married. The key is that you're not blood relatives, and you're genuinely sharing your life just like a typical couple would.

Courts will take a deep dive into your relationship to see if it meets the civil partnership criteria. They'll check out how long you've been together and whether you're really sharing your life in a meaningful way. They're looking at everything from how you handle money to how you support each other and whether you're seen as a couple by the people around you.

Importantly, no single factor will make or break your civil partnership status. The court looks at the big picture and considers multiple aspects of your relationship. They might look at how you share your home, whether you have a sexual relationship, how you handle finances, and how you take care of any children together.

The court has tons of flexibility when making this decision. They'll weigh different factors based on the specific details of your situation. It's not about checking off boxes but understanding the true nature of your relationship. They want to see if you're genuinely committed to each other and living life as a team.
