Romance Without Finance Is a Nuisance?
The Bride, on June 28, 2019 at 2:34 PM

Have you ever heard the phrase “romance without finance is a nuisance”? It means that relationships with financial issues are a headache and not likely to last. Do you agree? Why or why not?

Anyone else have four names?
Elizabeth, on May 17, 2021 at 8:46 AM

I'm considering keeping my middle name, adding my last name as a second middle name, and then taking FHs last name. Does anyone else have four names? Does it complicate paperwork or anything else?
