Ok so we have had the "Should a girlfriend/fiance call herself wife" debates. I have another for you.

On a message board or in "real" life, do you feel it is misleading and deceiving for someone to use their boyfriend's last name in their username?

I wouldn't ever really know who's last name it was ... so it matters not to me.

I personally wouldn't do it, but to answer the question, it would raise a momentary eyebrow, but all in all it doesn't really affect me KWIM??

I don't really care...they can do what they want. Is it confusing? Yes. Deceiving? I just feel that is too strong of a word. I wouldn't do it though.

Since I use Tony's last name in my username I will answer this. It probably only confusing or decieving to people who are trying to dig deep for stuff to bother them. Why should anyone care what anyone else uses as their username? How exactly is it effecting you? Yep I use his last name on this board. Shoot me.

i wouldn't use mine or his, unless it was a personal email address. idk, i'm not paranoid but i just don't think it's wise.

besides, he would kill me if i put mrs_habeeb as my email address, married or not. :lmao

I think it's a bit premature. As a username, I don't care. But if I met someone in real life who did that? I'd think she was LOOPED!! :sheep

I share a Safeway card with an ex (too many frequent flier miles to mess with the account). When we were dating AND now, they try to call me Mrs. X. I have ALWAYS corrected them. I am me, thank you!

I wouldn't use last names period...because I am paranoid...but I don't have a problem if other people do...I don't get too bent out of shape over things like that....

That's a really good point. I don't know that I'd want my last name on a site. Paranoid or something :dunno

I think it's kind of pathetic, but to each their own. Doesn't bother me really.

I use my last name, but we ARE married :giggle

It just seems kind odd to use a name that isn't yours, like your just pretending to be someone's wife.

meh... :whatever As an aside, even if I get married, I will not use his last name. I don't plan on being Mrs. DH, thankyouverymuch. I am me.... always have been and always will be. And that is just my opinion. :D

i think it's a little presumptuous on their part. especially when they're like "future mrs. _______" if they're a gf. but then again, no one knows their relationship besides them so maybe they are sure they'll be known as that one day. i dunno. i also don't like having my last name put out there for others to see on the web. i don't mind my first name or his though. :shrug
