So I went ahead, I just felt I wanted to have MY name, the name I shared w/ those who loved me, personally I didnt feel ex deserved for me to be shaing it, to me, when you take your H name its a sign of respect, after all in this day us women do not have to. I had no respect for him.
KarenMarieS,
I agree with you, this is a sign of respect....... If there was one thing I change in the terms of my D, I would have forced her to go back to her maiden name and no longer use my last name in any arena........ The type of women she is embarrasses me.... and shames my family name....
waw, I would go with whatever your heart is telling you... It is a tough choice for moms in your sitch..... My buddy's mom used "both" last names... The last name of his father and last name of his step father (actually, he is a BF; they were never formally married).... I am not sure which was her legal name.... I believe it was still the name of his father....
I wish you all the best.
Take Care,
NMD
