Today, I told my family that I wanted to change my last name to my future wife's. We want to have the same last name, and we chose hers because she is an only child, while I have three brothers. Half of my family is laughing and calling me "pussy whipped" while the other half won't speak to me. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my boyfriend asked me to marry him, saying that the only thing he would change about me is my last name. I later told him that I wanted to keep my last name after the marriage. I'm now single again. FML
Today, I got married. After the ceremony, my sister asked to talk to me. I followed her and she told me that we are no longer related because we don't have the same last name anymore. FML
Today, I’m getting married. My friends are all telling me that I’m not a “true feminist” since I’ve opted to change my last name to his. My last name is “Belcher.” FML
Today, I was talking to a new friend when I told him my last name. It’s hyphenated. He then left and declared me to be a "stuck-up bitch" who thinks she’s "too good to take a man’s last name." This is the name I was born with. FML
Today, my wife told me the main reason she married me is because I have a cool last name. FML
Today, my boyfriend said that he doesn't have to marry me because we coincidentally have the same last name. FML
Today, for what seems like the thousandth time, one of my new friends has cut me out of their life after I told them my last name. It’s hyphenated and I’m a woman, which means I'm “automatically” a stuck-up bitch. I'm not married, I was born with this last name. FML
Today, my father gave me his blessing to be married on one condition: that I keep my maiden name when I marry. My fiancé thought it would be "epic". My last name will be hyphenated to Cobb-Webb. FML
Today, my wife changed her name back to her maiden name. Why? So people would stop asking questions about us. We have been married for 15 years. FML
Today, my father-in-law decided to disown myself and his son, because my husband decided to hyphenate his last name. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Are you the lone wolf or a sheep? If you are a sheep then you ARE wrong, a pussy. The sheep follows the flock and doesn't stand out. He submits every decision to the flock for approval and doesn't buck the consensus. If you are the lone wolf, you don't tell anybody what you're going to do, you just do it. You face the world with your bitch by your side and **** all comers.

Everyone has the right to their own opinion. I dont have any brothers so my family wants me to either keep my maiden name or ask my husband to take mine so we can pass on the family name. But I like the idea of taking my husbands last name. Do what you want OP :) im sure your wife appreciates this.

I think that's really cool...it's non-traditional and honors her family...I've seen guys who hyphenate their names as well...trying to convince my boyfriend that would be a cool thing to do as well...best of luck with the marriage OP

**** them. I'm getting my future wires name for the same reason. and just cause you listen to your future wife and care about her blood line makes you twice the man. you go

I couldn't agree more with your family. Quit crying in the breast milk and be proud of who you are and where you come from.

he's extremly proud of himself to be able to tell his family that his future wife is important to him. Also taking the family name is the "pussy whipped" thing to do. the family is just mad cause their son has a brain and thinks for himself and cares about his future wifes bloodline.

So if a man taking a woman's last name is "pussy-whipped," does that mean a woman taking a man's last name is "dick whipped"?

It's nice that you wanna do that. It is a little weird though
