[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where I live, in Realityville, most people call each other by their first names.[/quote]

Interesting, in our section of Realityville, people use Mr or Mrs X until it’s a serious relationship. Moving in together, engaged, etc. [/quote]

This is so weird to me. Upon their moving in, do you say “David, you may now call me Perdita” with a gracious nod of the head and wave of the hand? You’re not the freaking Dowager Duchess. And he’s slipping it to her no matter what he calls you.[/quote]

You say it like sex is something dirty and expecting basic courtesy from a child's significant other is presumptuous. [/quote]

If my MiL had insisted on being called Mrs. K, I would have insisted her addressing me as “Ms. P.” Since apparently that’s basic courtesy, it extends both ways, no?[/quote]

So..... when you get married, you want Mrs. K to also call you Mrs. K? That's so weird.[/quote]

I'm replacing her, so, yes. [/quote]

You sound very insecure and hostile. You were not competing with your MIL  and won.

A spouse does not replace a parent. In a healthy marriage, those two relationships should be very different.[/quote]
