Miss or Ms.

Miss or Ms.

Not quite sure when to use Ms. and Miss?
I think it's Ms. when she's been married and got divorced, and Miss for a single lady.

I completely agree, I am 35 and dont like being addressed as Miss, I feel I am a little too old for that, can you tell I cant wait to be a Mrs????????

Im 35 too and I didnt care if people called me Miss or Ms. Just as long as they didn't call me maam. We used Miss for people uncer 18 and Ms. For those over 18 as well as divorcees. Widows who did not remarry had Mrs.
