[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate that my wife kept her name. It's one thing I would change about her and our marriage if I could. It's embarrassing to me and makes me sad that we will never be able to send out Christmas cards from the (last name)[/quote]

Are you a dude? Do you have monogrammed towels? WTF?[/quote]

Haha point taken! I've never sent out christmas cards (yet), but it was just a tangible way of giving an example of not being the (last name) family .. instead we are (first name and first name)

Hope you get what I meant

My social milieu is about 50/50 keepers/takers. As for the Christmas cards, you write "Love, the Smith/Jones family." [/quote]

I have no problem with women keeping their names, but I absolutely see PP's point. My best friend kept her name and it really bothers her husband for that reason. As a kid I hated when my friends' moms had different last names...it was awkward  ("Thank you Mr. Williams and Mrs...I mean Miss Bridges?") and I just avoided saying their names [/quote]

To be honest (and I can be since this is an anonymous forum), I'd rather not send cards at all than send them from a Smith/Jones family

And if my wife ever corrected someone who called her Mrs. Smith instead of Mrs. Jones when our kids are named Smith ..  I'd feel pretty lame.[/quote]

Jesus Christ, the two previous posts are the ultimate in snowflakery. How do people like you manage to make it through life?[/quote]
