 1 (iii) persons formerly married to one another regardless of whether

 3 (iv) persons who have a child in common regardless of whether such
 4 persons are married or have lived together at any time;
 5 (v) unrelated persons who are continually or at regular intervals
 6 living in the same household or who have in the past continually or at

 8 (vi) persons who are not related by consanguinity or affinity and who
