That’s actually so wild. It’s not a requirement to change your last name. If he wants to match so bad why doesn’t he change his to yours 🙄??

also people go by their partner’s name socially without legally changing their name. i feel like that could be a good compromise if you’re willing, but you’re valid for not wanting to do it altogether and i hate he tries to push that on you

Well that’s not a valid reason in his eyes and honestly no reason seems to be valid anymore

a petty part of me would tell him to change his last name to yours then and just say "it isn't a valid reason" to anything he says

I made a point as to how I don’t expect him to change his last name and he looked at me like I was crazy for bringing that up because that’s different apparently
