Today, I found out the tattoo symbolising my marriage turned out to be more permanent than the marriage itself. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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!

SO here is my take on this! 1) You got a tattoo for someone else! (mistake number one!) 2) you then post it here looking for sympathy (mistake number two!) 3) This is the best one, you then submit another FML because this one isnt going the way you want it to!!!! WHAT EVER!!! m/

Ghad. The FML here isn't that he got a tattoo about it, it's that the relationship ENDED. That's quite an FML. All the people who say he deserved to be left are just plain dumb.

YDI. Not for having your relationship end, but for getting a tattoo based on it to begin with. Nothing lasts forever.

Yeah, that's why you should never tattoo someone's name on your body... other than your own or maybe your child's. Have it removed and quit bitching about your own stupidity.

That's why any tattoo artist you talk to will try to talk you out of tattooing somebody's name on your body. An artist once told me he'll only tattoo the names of dead people because dead people probably aren't going to be able to piss your off/end relationships/etc. anymore.

#139 Exactly, the artist that did the tribute tattoo on my sister for our dad told her that tattooing a living persons name is bad luck and he wont do it, doesn't matter who the person is either, parent, child, boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse/friend

And this, ladies and gents, is why you don't get significant others names tattooed on you.
