Nothing in Texas law provides for an "automatic" divorce based on length of separation. You will remained married until one of two things happen:

1) One of you obtains a divorce; or,

2) One of you dies.

Re: divorse

I a common law marriage, if you have been separated over 2 years, it is harder to prove that a marriage existed.

However, it is NOT impossible to prove that a marriage exists.

Therefore, there are 3 ways to get divorced in Texas.

I would not assume you are divorced.
