Question about Family Tree Maker

Hello,
I'm about to enter some relatives onto my Family Tree Maker programme. How do I enter the names of someone's partner?
They are not married, and have children together. Do I just enter them as husband and wife?

If you add them in the same way that you would add a husband or wife, you can then go into ..People...then choose edit marriage and you can change the relationship between the two.
