   Names and dating
  Would you mind dating someone who''s name is the same as one of your family members? 
  I know what you are talking about, because I considered it once (the girl had my mother''s name). As it turned out, the decision was  made for me, the girl was already seeing someone. But, I have since come to the conclusion that I would not/could not do it. Just too weird. ;quote:Original post by capn_midnight  Just too weird.My thoughts exactly. ;  I was in the same situation, this girl that liked me had my mothers name, I also couldnt proceed.  Id be way too awkward. So Im hoping my family has unique names for the girls  [edited by - Samosa on February 8, 2004 12:40:47 PM];  Okay, if the girl were significantly different in appearance from my family member, then I might go along. However, the girl I knew was short and blonde, and so is my mother, so I just couldn''t do it (even if she were available). ;  I wouldn''t have a problem with it, besides I''d probally keep her away from my family members on account that they''re crazy.   Go to war again, blood is freedom''s stain, But don''t you pray for my soul anymore.;  I dated a girl for three months before I realized her name was the same as my mother''s.  By the time it was an issue, I was well past the point where such an arbitrary problem would have caused me to break up with her.  That''s really the way to go, and I recommend it to anybody suave enough to pull it off.CM ;quote:Original post by Conner McCloud  I dated a girl for three months before I realized her name was the same as my mother''s. you dated a girl for 3 months and didn''t know her name?;  I guessing/hoping that was just because she went by her middle name when you were dating her...and only later did you realize it wasn''t her first name. ;  ...maybe he didn''t know the name of his mother?
