Default OMG, civil partnerships only for same-sex couples??
Someone please stop me from having a panic attack. I just read this on the UK Border Agency Visa Services Home Page website: "Under the Civil Partnership Act 2004, civil partnerships can only be entered into by same-sex couples."

Does this mean that my partner and I (who are opposite-sex) will not be recognized as legal partners in the UK?? My entire visa application is based on this!
