That's a good thing. Means he never got rid of her as a contact, kept her since the first time they exchanged numbers!
I don't think I've ever updated anyone's name in my contacts lol My married friends are all still thier OG names.
I finally put my sister in law in my phone with our now shared last name just today, since she texted me on my first phone that didn't just use google's backup on all my contacts and I had to look the number on my old phone and add her to this one.
I never update numbers. I realize when I see things like Danielle (Brothers name's gf).
He married her in 2019 and they have 2 kids now. Pretty safe to say I could have updated it. Just about every woman I know who got married and changed their last name, I never updated. I never delete numbers either, I don't actively talk to the 890 contacts in my phone, I may talk to 4. They just don't take up enough room to bother and who knows, maybe I go back to another town 10 years from now and call a random guy I remember. If we met up at bar it'd be like we had been hanging out the week before anyways.
My brother in law is still "[first name] sister's Boyfriend". They got married in 2013.
