Would you change your last name on your social media accounts right away, or would you wait until the divorce was finalized?

In this story, one woman is in this exact situation, and she plans to wait until the divorce is finalized.

Keeps reading for all the details of her sad story.

AITA for not changing my (soon to be ex) husbands name back to my maiden name?

My (soon to be ex) husband left me almost a year ago for another woman.

We had been together for 7 years and married for 16 months when he left.

I am disabled and have no use of my left hand or foot since birth and require quite a lot of care. i am unable to work because of my disabilities.

He clearly had an affair.

In November last year, he left me and said he wasn’t coming back. he left me for a girl almost 10 years younger than me.

He tells me there was no overlap in our marriage and his affair, but i know there was. he would tell me he was staying with a friend. i knew he wasn’t.

in november i had a weekend away with some friends and when i came home, i could smell a different perfume in my bed. one that i wouldn’t wear. i also found a strand of hair that was a different colour to mine.

Yet he swears nothing happened.

This is really sad timing.

He left me just before christmas, and the weekend before his birthday.

I bought him presents which he refused to take and i had also booked a suprised trip for him which he was no longer interested in. i had also already started buying his christmas presents too.

In January this year, i was scheduled to have surgery on my foot.

He knew this surgery would leave me unable to walk and require constant care while i recovered, yet he still left me and told me “it was my family’s responsibility” to check in and help me after the surgery.

This would be like salt in a wound.

We were having some fertility issues, i wanted children and so did he. we had both been tested and they confirmed the issues were on his side.

That’s why it was an extra kick in the face to me when he came to pick up the rest of his belongings and he had a baby seat in the back of his car.

The girl he left me for was a single mother with an 8 month old baby.

It just keeps getting worse.

The same day i found out my dad has stage 4 cancer, i received divorce papers in the mail followed by a text asking me to sign them.

Ever since then, all he posts about on facebook is how great his life is with her and how “their daughter” calls him daddy and how much he loves being a father.

He really wants her to change her last name.

He messaged me recently asking when i am changing my name on facebook as it is still his last name instead of my maiden name.

I told him once the divorce has processed as until then, that is legally my name.

He told me i should change it as it makes his new girlfriend uncomfortable.

I told him respectfully, that’s not my problem and i will not be changing it to my maiden name until the divorce has finalised and i don’t care if it makes his new girlfriend uncomfortable.

AITA for this?

She has done nothing wrong. He is horrible in every way possible.

Let’s see how Reddit reacted to this story.

She wouldn’t ever have to change her name.

Here’s an example of a celebrity who didn’t change her name.

There is an easy solution.

A divorced woman weighs in.

This person’s mom never changed her name.

Her ex needs to leave her alone.
