Marriage is when two people unite to form a unit and celebrate theirlove.
This is the dilemma a woman faced just one week before her wedding.
She was torn between keeping her maiden name or taking her husbands surname.
She finally decided to ask people for help and figure out based on their experiences.
Thats probably why the poster found it difficult to decide what to do about her maidenname.
Some are also forced to do it out of pressure to adhere to traditions.
So, it makes sense that the OP wanted to hear peoples lived experiences before she made a decision.
Only in the 1970s did laws change so that women could keep theirmaiden name.
Its definitely difficult to decide whats the best approach toward adopting or retaining a surname after marriage.
What do you think about this practice?
Have you ever faced the same kind of dilemma?
