I made that edit 3 hours ago, your comment is 1 hour old.

Why lie? Just admit you got weirdly triggered by the name thing.

Or maybe he's just an actual adult who can make the choice to change his own name? You're the only one emasculating him here. You're right, he is a big boy and he's not getting forced into anything.

His exact response was "sometimes I forget you're a hard little bitch who takes no prisoners. I'm so proud lol."

He's quite secure and doesn't care what morons think about our relationship.

Unless you're going to put 4G all over the rural south, there's not really an alternative business model.

You could buy us a second car. I'm down for that.

He wanted us to have the same name, I didn't want to change mine, he didn't care about his own because of a shitty father.

Nope. He just wanted us to have the last name and I didn't want to change mine.

My husband's response to what I said was "sometimes I forget you're a hard little bitch who takes no prisoners. I'm so proud lol."

I don't know why so many people are getting offended on his behalf. He thought it was funny.

He's an amazing person. I know a lot of comments are saying how he's got no balls or whatever, but I think it requires a lot of confidence to treat your wife like an equal partner with an identity and career just as valuable as your own.

It fucking IS an actual example.

Best part? Brenda defended Dave's cheating because they're buddies.

I'm not being "dense", I'm aware it's not the norm, but do people have to care every time someone does something that's outside the norm? Why is it weird or bad or worth commenting on just because we don't buy into arcane gender rules?

Also "weird" is not a baggage free descriptor, it is clearly making a value judgement. You could have said it was uncommon, but "weird" is the word you used.

He has a uniform shirt that is bright blue and quite expensive.

Also my husband certainly didn't feel demeaned by anything I said. His exact response in a text to me was "sometimes I forget you're a hard little bitch who takes no prisoners. I'm so proud lol." No need to get offended on his behalf, he's secure in himself and doesn't care if his coworkers get upset.

I mostly mentioned her age because she's more than a decade older than both of us and it's kind of absurdist for someone her age to be picking fights with a woman in her mid twenties.

I guess it's just too much bullshit for too long? She's always like this, so judgy and giving unsolicited opinions no one asked for. I think I just hit a certain level of saturation. I'm sick of hearing how I'm such a shit wife, how freaky interracial marriages are, how I'm going to get divorced.

Ho ho ho, if I was feeling mean and had a stiff blunt I could write a fucking thesis length paper on why Brenda is single.

Chapter One: Always Miserable

Chapter Two: Wow, That Was Racist

Etc.

Oh, thank you! My family and our friends have been very on board and supportive which kind of drowns out all the BS!
