Opinion Please help!!
So I just found out that I am expecting with my long time boyfriend. Well we have started to talk about names. I told him before we found it I was pregnant that I will not have my child with a different than my own. As he had said he doesn't want to get married. Which I am fine with. I just dont want to give my child a different last name from mine an he was fine with that. Now that we are expecting he is not fine with the baby having my last name and not his. If we were to get married I would also have the baby's name changed. If it didn't work with us I wouldn't give his child the name of someone who would be a stepparent to his child at all!
Update: I am seeing a lot of hyphenate the last name. I would love to but I have a long last name and his is short. I would be fine with that.
I did tell him that if we were to get married I would have the last name changed. I just don't know how I feel giving the baby his name as he has an older child and try's to control his mother and change everything. He has full custody of his son which is great but he doesn't follow the drop off times as his reasoning is he was sleeping and I didn't want to wake him. I feel like giving him his way will make him think he can control me and the baby and if we didn't work it would be his way. Just a little background on the situation. He has never controlled me or anything I do. He is very protective and proud of his son. He is a wonderful father to his son unlike his mother. The mother is a POS and abused him as a baby which I think is why he does what he does with her. I just want to be sure I have no chance of this.
