Today, I found out the tattoo symbolising my marriage turned out to be more permanent than the marriage itself. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I got a tattoo with my boyfriend's name on it. As we're coworkers, I showed it to him thinking he’d love it. He told me he couldn’t continue the relationship anymore since he realized he wants to fix things with his wife. Three hours of pain and 2 years down the drain. FML
Today, I found out that my wife is leaving me for a tattoo artist. I was in rehab and she met him getting a tattoo as a surprise for me. FML
Today, I realized my husband and I have been fighting a lot lately, so to show him how much I care, I got a tattoo with his name on it. He hates it. FML
Today, my girlfriend dumped me for the tattoo artist who gave us our matching "love" tattoos. FML
Today, I found out that the phrase I got tattooed on my lower back is misspelled. FML
Today, I got piss drunk. Being a tattoo artist, I came to the intoxicated conclusion that I could save much more money doing my own tattoos on myself. I now have my ex-boyfriend's name permanently on my thigh. It's not even spelled right. FML
Today, I realized that the "holla" tattoo I stupidly got on my lower lip five years ago isn't fading as I expected it to, and will probably contribute to my unemployment for years to come. FML
Today, I finally got a tattoo of an alchemy symbol that I've wanted for years. I also found out later that symbol stands for urine. FML
Today, I went to get a tattoo of my girlfriend's name to surprise her. Halfway through the tattooing, she called and broke up with me. FML
Today, I got my first tattoo. It was a surprise for my fiancé: our names together over a heart. I went home but before I could show him, he said we had to have a "talk." So now my ex's name is tattooed on my back. The kicker? Turns out I'm allergic to the ink. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

A marriage is supposed to be more than just a relationship. Most people don't enter into marriages expecting them to fail, as it's supposed to be "for better or for worse". Unless it's Hollywood.

You could always do what my friend did....he got a red box with the word VOID over the tattoo he and his fiance got together.

im sorry to hear that, but it doesnt matter if you are soulmates or not, you just dont-do-a-tattoo-with-your-girlfriend/wife/affair/whatever name. i know marriages are supposed to last, but the thing is you never know what's gonna happen,so just save the money and.... don't. too late now,maybe you can tattoo FML under it.

Wow I don't get why everyone is still assuming its of a name. Either way, you deserve it. At least there are now ways to get them kind of removed. Have fun with that pain.

Isn't that one of the rules of tattoos? Never get a tattoo with an SO's name on it, never get a tattoo about being married, etc? If I got someone's name, it'd be my kid's name. They'll always be my kids, but DH may not always be DH... I hope that's not the case!

Are you guys kidding?! This wasn't just a "relationship," marriages are meant to last forever! You are all cruel, heartless people. I am so, so sorry branded.

In Wisconsin, it's legal to get married while you're drunk, but it's illegal to get a tattoo while you're drunk. The reason? Tattoos are permanent. The funny/sad part is, this isn't intended to be a joke; it's a fact. Sure, you can get it removed, but it's likely to leave a scar. Hopefully it won't be too hard to cover up.

if you get a tatoo, make sure you find a good tatoo artist that can turn it into something awesome!

You should never tattoo a partners name one your body. How is that EVER a good idea? And anyone who thinks it is a good idea is a moron. Although you hope that it is FOREVER, I would never take that remote chance that it wouldn't and be stuck with it or have to work with a cover-up or removal.
