The 5th amendment refers to Spousal Privilege - which is only open to federally recognized married couples. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spousal_privilege
Ah, I would assume you are a die hard libertarian? Don't worry too much about it, not all laws are bad. But it covers things like immigration, hospital visitation (where you spouse can visit you - even if your family hates them), inheritance and things like that.
Like I said, I doubt most of those will effect you - unless you fall in love with someone born in another country and want them to stay with you.

Where?
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

I just quoted the whole Fifth Amendment. There's no mention of spousal privelege. In fact, it specifically mentiones "No person" meaning it's not something exclusive to spouses.
