Yeah my wife and I just kept our name. Its funny because over the years we sorta wish we would have done the traditional thing as it would make a variety of things easier but now apparently its becoming a brilliant move.
My wife did the same, but for unofficial stuff, she uses my last name as hers.
yeah its more problematic for official stuff really. like being in the hospital. Its not much but like you tend to have to make it more clear your the spouse.
ID with the same address usually solves this for me.
a little conversation usually does but sometimes, if she is conscious, they have to verify with her and it can take a bit if they are to busy.
We got married ten years ago and she didn't take my name. I'm very much cool with it, and it's got easier over the years.
yeah it was a slow burn annoyance and she gets annoyed by it more than I but it took like 20 odd years to be like. This is sorta annoying. EDITED - hey so im rethinking and it started at about the 10 year mark and built up over time but as I said its little things. My wife has a lot of medical issues though so we might have more nuisance around it than the typical couple.
We all got our struggles. Ours are shitty and I'm sure you guys have shitty ones too. Fucking life is shitty. All we can do is try to help our people out when we can.
