NAME CHANGE AFTER DIVORCE

WOW! Some great responses. I am currently in the process of getting divorced from my husband of ten years and am seriously inclined to keep his last name. The reason -- I happen to like who I have become through the marriage. We have had some good times and lots of bad times. But I have grown tremendously through the bad times and am a much stronger person now than I was going into the marriage. Plus, I happen to like the name. And, this isn`t the first time I`ve been married, my kids are all grown and have different names than I do anyway, and I`m tired of changing my name. I don`t believe this means I`m trying to hang on to anything. I`m just more comfortable with that name.
