Hmm, loads of questions! I'll answer a few because many don't apply.

I don't think I ever want to get married.

If I did, though, I have something really special I've imagined. I don't want to say WHAT happens at the end of the movie, but the end of the Runaway Bride is just how I want it.

Regarding taking your husband's last name: What bothers me is that society EXPECTS a woman to give up her own name. It should be a choice.

If I had a cool last name- like Garcia (I LOVE that last name)- and I got married... there would be no way in hell I'd take my husband's last name!!

I absolutely HATE my surname. I love my father and he has done a lot of stuff to try to make it up to me, but it's just a horrible ugly last name. I would be tickled pink if I married someone named Garcia or López. I know they're common in Spanish speaking countries, but I don't care... I LOVE those surnames!!!!

If I marry a guy whose last name is Fartbomb, I'm not taking his last name either.
