Re: having a hard time

Sorry B - I hear you!

I never thought twice about changing my name when I got married but when it was time to actually go ahead and start the process it made me sad

It can be a really odd/strange/kinda emotional thing....to change your identity!

I started the process and never finished....total half @ss job! I also have to get a new license soon....gonna change over bc I changed my ssn and my name at work....

Re: having a hard time

I am totally struggling with this too. It's a lot harder to mentally grasp than I thought it would be.

Re: having a hard time

I had a hard time with the thought of changing my name. My DH really wanted me to.

I changed it right away, but I am still not used to it! actually my DH introduced me the other day as Marie 'old last name' and I just laughed! because I always use my old last name even thought I have a new one.

I find the whole name thing the most difficult thing to get used to.

I was marie p_____________ or 30 years and now I'm marie s_________________
