[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mrs. Is way more informative.

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

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.

Hate to disappoint you, but this is not true.  If I meet her for the first time, the only thing Mrs is telling me is that she got married at some point and changed her ladt name to her husband's name.  If she then divorced and didn't change back to her maiden name, she isstill Mrs.[/quote]

In the case of a divorced woman, "Mrs. Arthur Reynolds" is no longer an option. If she retains her former husband's last name (and many women do so that their surname will be the same as their children's) then Mrs. [or Ms.] Susan Reynolds is correct. If she reverts to her maiden name, Ms. is the correct title, as in "Ms. Susan Hughes."[/quote]
