Search Results: wife marriage

In some cultures, married women don't change their last name, but I would have an issue with that. The wife inheriting her husband's last name after marriage is an American tradition, and it's a tradition I want to live by. I want us to be Mr. and Mrs. Smith, not Mr. Smith and Mrs. Johnson. People would think that our marriage is unofficial and we would constantly have to explain the reasonings. Also, I'm old-fashioned when it comes to relationships. I wouldn't harass her or force her into it or anything, I'd just have a problem with it.

By the way, Smith is not my last name and Mrs. Johnson doesn't exist, their just sample names I used.

So here is the situation. I have a best friend, Against my advice he married one of those feminist types. Anyway, a year into their marriage they choose to try for a baby. She wants a daughter apparently. He does not care as long as its healthy. Later in the pregnancy she finds out that she is having a boy. She goes behind his back and without telling him, she has an abortion. Later she tells him that she miscarried. When the medical bills come in, he discovers the truth, confronts her, and she said that it was her body, her choice, and she didn't want to bring another nasty disgusting boy into existence. He comes to me devastated, I chose to put him in contact with my lawyer, and paid for his retainer. He divorced his wife.. Thankfully they were together just over a year so she is entitled to nothing, The divorce happened, and she is out on the streets. Both he and i have been receiving death threats from her family and friends because of the divorce.

In this situation i personally believe she was the asshole.. She chose to kill his child behind his back, and lie about it.. Yes her body her choice.. But on that same token they're married and she should have at least had the balls to have a conversation with him.
