In my opinion for a marriage to actually work both people must abandon their former self-driven personalities and become in a sense, one person.

I think this is a very nice summation of the beginning of laying the foundation for a successful marriage. When I got married, I wanted to change my last name because I wanted to show to the world that I was a new and different person- my husband's wife. It's really special for me to have his last name- and it really represents a sense of unity for us, our joining into a family. Althought now I'm stuck with a last name that people don't know how to spell, unlike my maiden name!
