I know a lot of hispanic people have hypenated surnames. I assumed it was for their parents; not spouse. I could be wrong....
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

If a woman suggests this, just tell her to shut up and make dinner.I was thinking today how i'm just seeing more and more men with these "hyphenated" surnames (joint husband and wife last names) :crazy: . I may be old fashion but I think giving my name to my woman (if she exists and is truly worthy of it) is one of the GREATEST GIFTS A MAN CAN GIVE A WOMAN.
Call me sexist, but nothing feels great to a man when his woman takes his name, has his children and becomes his intimate partner in life. I'm still a man, but she becomes the "backbone and the Love that holds the family together" and i'm not ashamed to say that.
HOWEVER, for me personally I would never ever consider changing my name....THE ONLY POSSIBLE EXCEPTION IS IF SHE HAS NO ONE IN HER FAMILY TO CONTINUE THE FAMILY LEGACY "NAME THAT IS" AND EVEN THEN I'M DOUBTFUL....
I'm looking at couples that have done it and in EVERY CASE I SEE WOMEN WHO ARE EITHER DOMINANT OVER THERE MEN, MEN WHO ARE TOO SUPLICATING, WEAK OR JUST DESPERATE.....
Any thoughts???
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
The husband is the head of the wife. He is to be her protector and provider. When a wife takes her husband’s name, she displays submission to him, which is in accord with God’s will. Notice: “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord” (Eph. 5:22; also read Colossians 3:18).yet are so concerned as to whether she would take your name or not in marriage.
in theory for sure. in the very early times, we did not have a surname, only a name. for example, Adam. The first man is just Adam, not Adam Smith.The husband is the head of the wife.

I teach that in my church all the time as I head up bible studies throughout the year. I think you might be missing my point.The husband is the head of the wife.

Damn right.Some of you guys would die on the hill of never getting married, yet are so concerned as to whether she would take your name or not in marriage.![]()
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Atom mate, that is all. it's gynocentric on steroids today. Fellas continue to simp. I have made disclaimer for religious lads or the outlier. It's never that IMHO.I teach that in my church all the time as I head up bible studies throughout the year. I think you might be missing my point.
Most men here rail against the idea of marriage. “I’ll never get married!” is the battle cry of most here.
Yet they enthusiastically express the principle that a woman must be willing to take his name in marriage.
For me, of course (who is actually getting married), her not taking my name would be an absolute deal-breaker.
I don't disagree with you BUTTTTT! In modern Era, women will pay lip service and then bait & switch.The husband is the head of the wife. He is to be her protector and provider.

That is one thing that really bothers me, having to divorce would also bring great shame to my family.I don't disagree with you BUTTTTT! In modern Era, women will pay lip service and then bait & switch.
Religious lads should d9 something 'covenant' based (ie man, woman &&& God) not STATE). The problem is that, it's just viewed as marriage by the court.and unless more men are willing to go Cobra Tate and burn everything before divorce rape, he is a the mercy of the courts.
