So I'm getting the itch to get another tattoo

I really really want one on my side. kind of close to where the bra straps is.

I'm thinking an infiniti sign with the date we got married on it.

WDYT?

  • No But it's your body.
  • Do it! I love tattoos there. Just be sure it's not low enough to stretch when you get pg.

  • I want MH to have my face tattooed on his ass, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea.

  • I have one in that spot and love it, but it hurt like a beast. I have gotten a matching design with someone, but I don't think dates/names are ever good ideas unless they're relevant to children/parents. I like things that are symbolic though, not so specific.

    Yes
  • I say do it without the dates. But that is just me.

  • While I appreciate and understand your concern on putting the date on me permanently. This is my husband. The man I married and have been with the better part of 10 years. Not some high school boyfriend. I think I'm compromising by not putting his name on it, just the date.

    Maybe I'm just naive and not jaded yet.

    That's just me.

  • VXS, I'm not all for tattoos like that, but if you've put thought into it and want it, do it!

  • Yeah, it doesn't matter what we would do. This is your tattoo, your body, your marriage.  :)

    This. It does hurt right there, so beware! But if you want this tattoo, go get it, and don't mind our opinions! I'm itching for #10, and have been thinking about going and getting my next one priced out... so I get feeling the need for a new one. :)

    Mhm, I haven't gotten one for a year and a half, and I'm dying. Once you get one they're just addictive! Granted I got two the first time I went, but...

  • We are all very well aware that you are married.
  • Wait! Dude! Everyone attending the GTG this weekend MUST go get the VXS wedding date tattoo!

    A tattoo for everyone!

  • I'm not into tats, but I agree, it's your body, do what you want.

    Yessss!

    On our honeymoon we got tattoos - he got the never ending knot, and I got two seahorses touching noses and making a heart with the inside of their bodies.

    I'll be adding our date in there eventually. I haven't quite figured out how to expand on it (I wanted to add something to the tatt every 5 years)

  • Guess I'm a debbie downer because I don't like relationship tattoos, no matter who or how long it is. woh wohhhh

  • to be fair, you did ask what everyone thought.

    I say do what you want. Its your body and your tat is supposed to mean something to you. I just 2nd the thought of being careful it isn't placed where it might stretch when you get pg.

  • Tattoos are supposed to be personal and have special meaning to YOU, it really doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. 

    That said, while the idea is sweet, most people will be against initials, names, and dates pertaining to relationships because they sort of have a doomed factor to them as if it's a curse.      Not to say it has any impact in your own relationship, but it's just how it goes sometimes. 

     

    I have kind of wanted one for years but I'm not gonna tell anyone my idea until it's already on my body.   If I spent that long of a time frame thinking it out and perfecting a design, I'm not going to let anyone else talk me out of it or tell me it sucks because I don't want to hear it.   I either want it permanently or I don't.

  • Wait, so you think we are jaded in our marriages because we think dates are a bad idea? This, coming from the person that not too long ago, was in fact jaded?

    Yes  I don't really care what anyone puts on their body, but I think some of us are wondering why you would do this considering some of the stories you have told us in the past.  Sorry if that is a sore subject, but you did put that on the board.

  • imageJennifer0807:

    I agree. You asked for our opinions but since it isn't lining up with what you want us to say, we are jaded. You can put anything you want on your body but anything specific to relationships is a no-no for me, personally. 

  • I was married that day. No matter what happens in teh future, that date still means something to ME.

    And I agree, we have had our issues. Every couple has issues. But we grew stronger because of it. And that's what it symbolizes.

    But since the internet never forgets...there you have it.

    ETA: Thanks for your honest feedback! I appreciate it. I can always count on you all to be honest ;-)
