flyingferret 0 #101 November 18, 2004 I like your choice. Love is illogical. I don't understand things I do right now that I would not have done 6 months ago, but I am happy and in love being illogical.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI.

SkyDekker 1,123 #103 November 18, 2004 Quoteand another guy post that he wouldn't be married to his wife now if they hadn't taken his last name and also give the baby certain initials. No one even commented on that. That in my view is having only one perspective True it is only one perspective. To me a 400 year tradition within a family with a name of which there is no second family in the world is important to me. Thankfully my wife shared that perspective.

misskriss 0 #104 November 18, 2004 QuoteThe whole point is choosing someone who meets your needs and desires so much, you do not want to live without them I agree... and I believe the man that Val chooses to marry if she ever wishes to be married will be completely comfortable and confident that she keeps her own name.

flyingferret 0 #107 November 18, 2004 I see your point, I am not taking a 'guy' or 'girl' side. I AM saying that a person who says 'Not an option' about something they 'don't need' is operating outside what people like AD and I feel is true love.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI.

chaoskitty 0 #112 November 18, 2004 I know of 2 couples who decided to pick out a completely new last name when they got married. So they both changed thier names. I guess thats OK but kinda retarted at the same time. I'm old-fashioned and will take my husband's name. Unless it is Crapass. I dont think I'd even date a Crapass.

Jessica 0 #113 November 18, 2004 When I get married, no matter to whom, I'm taking Val's last name. Me too! I don't think I could take my boyfriend's last name if we got married, because he has a creepy ex-wife who kept his name even though they were only married for two years. Anyway, I like my name. There's a strong family connection there for me. The kids would probably get his last name.Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't like when people who all think alike gang up on someone who has different viewpoints than their own. Why does everyone care so much whether or not Val takes her future husband's last name? My guess is people became offended because she stated that she feels that it's illogical to go along with something that some others feel is personally a gift or something to cherish with the person whom they love. Their emotions are involved, although Val didn't mean to insult them in any way since she was speaking of her own feelings/ideas. It's ironic because while Val has not insulted them with her own choice, some people have perceived her posts as insulting because her comments are (in their eyes) cutting down what they truly believe in with their hearts and minds.

My ex husband named our first born daughter because he asked if he could and as a loving wife I bestowed this honor upon him. I really wasn't enthused with the name at all he chose but he really loved it and I have grown to love it because it's hers. It was an unusual name so I asked him where he heard it. He said he remembered someone in highschool by that name and he always liked it. I asked him if it was a former girlfriend and he promised no it was not and it was just a name he heard and thought it was beautiful like our little girl. After moving one time there was a box of his with old stuff in it and I was going through it.. what in the hell do I find but old love letters from one of his highschool infatuations with that name!! I confronted him about it and he said that he really loved the name and he knew I would have never named our daughter that if he knew it was the same as an old girlfriend.
