Okay, so interesting thing I asked my friends the other night while at an event. Normally they all give the same answer to things, but this time, there was a big 50/50 split.

Question: Would you be willing to date someone, even if they don't want to tell you their name?

Just assume that they are open about everything else, but they just don't want to tell you their name. Might have a reason, might not. Might have a GOOD reason, might not. Also, just because they don't want to tell you their name, it doesn't mean that you can't find it out via other means.

Also, they may or may not be open about the REASON why they wish to hide their name.

Would you date someone, even if they didn't want to tell you their name?

What would happen if all of the air in the world suddenly turned into wood?

Nope, sorry. That would just be really weird and would definitely give me a ton of red flags.

Definitely depends on context, but in general Id say no. Everyone has skeletons in their closet and the person you're dating (its more than like just fu.cking) should have a relationship with u built on trust.

I've been in a situation where someone I knew was using a false identity, and everyone knew them as their false identity except me and maybe 2-3 other people.

They are deported now from what I heard.


I would be very skeptical if someone doesn't want to tell you their name, or is using a nickname.

Names are irrelevant. I wouldn't date anyone regardless.

if they provide a nickname, pseudonym, chosen name, legal name; give anything other than their birth name then that is still their name.
