My wife at school Mrs. Means she is married not a single or divorced mom.

Mrs. means my last name is not her maiden name. I am a different nationality than wife.

Mrs. means at a company party she is my wife. I also get invited places with my daughters so on invite they are Ms. or Miss. and wife Mrs.helps it be less confusing.

And what is informative of your marital status? Or your sons titles? Why do we only need to know the marital status of women with their titles?

My niece married her long term boyfriend. My daughters think he is Gay.

My Catholic niece I noticed did not have a church wedding or priest, did not take his last name and they rented instead of buying. He turned red when someone asked about kids.

On other hand my wife’s friend married a Trader on Wall Street from Greenwich CT (she was a nurse, parents retired cop and SAHM in a small cape)

She had a 300 person Catholic Church ceremony, took his name, they bought a house right away and a kid right away. She attended big off-site work events, joined country club, hired maids and Nannie’s. She was Mrs. (His last name).

What is wrong with her being proud?

My sister married and changed her name. She wanted the same name as her kids. She and her husband divorced and she went back to her maiden name.

I kept my name upon marriage. We've been married 30 years and have kids who don't understand why a woman would change her name.

I guess if I was hedging my bets, it's worked out better for me than for my sister.
