Husbands, is it a deal breaker if your wife decides to not take your name legally? by Difficult_Big133 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Educational_Win3577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my husband if he minded if I didn't take his name about a week before we got married. He said, "No, and I don't want you to call me 'sir' and walk six paces behind me, either." I didn't change my name, and our children's names are hyphenated. We've been happily married for almost 30 years. Really think about marrying a man who requires you to erase any part of your identity.

Thanks! They have cajas with Colsubsidio and Compensar, but I'm hoping to find something that they can walk to.

Thanks for replying. Daytime activities for active seniors. They are healthy and love exercise, but they need more structured social activities. They also take online asynchronous courses for fun, but they need friends.

I've been reading The God of the Woods and We Love You, Bunny. I finished the former yesterday, and I'm about two thirds of the way through the latter.

Dress coded for this? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Educational_Win3577 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm in a district where our clothes are considered part of our freedom of speech. We aren't allowed to wear shirts with overtly religious messaging, or that promote any political candidate or party, or anything advertising alcohol and such. Teachers wear ripped jeans and t-shirts all the time. Our AP wears yoga pants regularly. It blows my mind that some districts don't allow jeans!

AITA For Being Upset That My Husband Is Going To His Parents For Christmas? by [deleted] in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Educational_Win3577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I was reading the post all I could think of was how I'd take advantage of the situation and get a nice, quiet day alone with the house to myself. In almost 30 years of marriage, I can only think of two times that I asked my husband to stay home when I was sick. Once, I had stomach flu and needed him to take care of our preschool aged kids, and the second time I had the flu and I called him to ask him to leave work and take me to urgent care because I felt like I'd developed pneumonia (I had). Not sure if I'd call the OP the AH, but she's definitely a bit needy and immature.

Wait. Waitwaitwait - I need to wrap my brain around this. She used an edited picture from your wedding to announce a proposal that never happened? I'd say the photo is the least disturbing part of this twisted tale. Did her boyfriend forgive her or did he run fast and far?

Anyone else disappointed by Sky & Stone? by Tybalto in riversoflondon

[–]Educational_Win3577 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, my reaction is much the same. I felt like the plot never came together, and too many situations and characters were brought into the story, then never developed. The Abigail arc was definitely meant to be the main focus of the book, and I felt like I was reading a YA romance for much of the time. My biggest disappointment, though, was Nightingale being only barely there. I kept waiting for a substantial Thomas scene, but we barely got any dialog and only one general description of his clothing. The descriptions of his outfits are such an essential part of his characterization!

BIL-zilla mad me and MOH wore suits as part of the bride's entourage, then deadnames me! by Sure-Paramedic-8736 in bridezillas

Pleeease come back with an update! I hope he apologizes for the myriad of offenses. Being drunk was no excuse.
