I can't get over the fact that he's called Bruce

[BenMichellsGlasses]

Met a nice guy, been out a couple of times but he's called Bruce and it angers me! It makes me cringe and I can't seem to get over it. AIBU to just give up on him over it?

[LittleBearPad]

Well it could be worse. Give him a nickname if he's worth it.

[BondJayneBond]

Yes, YABU.

[doceodocere]

What's wrong with Bruce?

[whattheseithakasmean]

YANBU. If his name annoys you so much, he obviously not the one for you. Throw him back for another woman to have, plenty more fish in the sea.

[RiverTam]

I think Bruce is quite a sexy name.

[ZenNudist]

Have you said 'nice to see you' to him yet?



Or just g'day. (For some reason I also associate Bruce with Australians

[DancingDinosaur]

I used to go out with a Bruce. He was cool, loads of fun. The name suited him. Whats wrong with Bruce?

[DevonFolk]

I have two friends who are married to a Bruce. Both are hard workers and great dads. I think it's quite manly actually.

[CerseiHeartsJaime4ever]

Sorry, I'd have to sing at him all the time, I'd find a nickname pronto!

"Lets call a truce, Bruce. The time has come to put that tumberly tum to use.

Come on Bruce be our hero! Cover yourself in chocolate mousse!"

[CharleyDavidson]

Awwww. I like the name Bruce.

Our late cat was called Bruce. :)

[dementedma]

Lots of Bruces here in Scotland. It's cool!

[ThroughThickAndThin01]

Yes! He doesn't deserve you.

[Eva50]

My neighbour is Bruce. My friends son is Bruce. What's wrong with it. I would ditch him if I were you - do him a favour!

[RoseDog]

I know 2 Bruce's, they are good people!

[SwedishEdith]

I quite like it.

I did have an ex that I referred to for nearly 2 years as "my boyfriend" to avoid saying his name out loud.

[TudorTrace]

My childhood sweetheart was a Bruce.

Most genuine, realistic and kind person I've ever known, I often wonder what he's doing now

YABVU shouts my 14 year old self

[patienceisvirtuous]

Call him B 😄

I went out with a Barry and a Gary. Hated their names.

Refused to be set up with a Nigel once based on his name 😳

[scratchandsniff]

At least it's not Kevin

[Seeyounearertime]

Bruce is an awesome name, why?

Bruce Campbell, awesome actor.
Bruce Dickinson, awesome singer.

[NellyTimes]

"So your name's not Bruce then...that's gonna cause a little confusion around here"

[SirChenjin]

As demented says, it's quite common up here - no big deal.

Now Nigel or Trevor....

[magpie17]

Just don't use his name! I hardly ever call my DH by his actual name, I just use a series of pet names. (His name is fine though and so is Bruce)

[cantgonofurther]

Makes me think of sweet Valley high books.

[toffeeboffin]

Bruce? Quite sexy.

I imagine a guy with a beard and broad shoulders and a nice, cheeky smile.

I'd shag Bruce.
