Re: Did it bother you if you couldn't get things with your name on growing up?
in reply to a message by Kerrin
My name s super common in my country, and being named like every other female my name bothered me more than not finding my names on things would have, I think.
Like Tuesday, I have a couple of friends with unusual names. I never heard them complain about this, of all things, though one was probably happy to receive a custom-made Sex and the City style necklace with her name on it as a present.
"We have to live without sympathy, don't we? That's impossible of course. We act it to one another, all this hardness; but we aren't like that really, I mean...one can't be out in the cold all the time; one has to come in from the cold...d'you see what I mean?”
