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?

Getting tattoos signifiying any relationship is pretty stupid. It's not cute or sweet, it's idiotic. You can't gaurentee anything will last forever... EXCEPT tattoos. Those are forever. Relationships however, are so volatile, you can't predict what will happen years down the road. People change, situations change, you can't say you KNOW you'll be together forever - you can say you HOPE you're together forever. YDI hands down.

I've always liked the saying, "A tattoo is a permanent reminder of a temporary impulse". Have some respect for your body.

Yeah the only names you should ever get tattooed on you are relatives, preferably parents or children, and preferably dead ones. >> Getting a spouse's name on you is pretty much tempting fate, and stuff like that rarely ends well. YDI.

With 50% of marriages ending in divorce, why on earth would ANYONE get a tattoo to signify love for someone else? Love is not permanent, ink in your skin is. I just don't get it. There have been so many movies/stories about this happening, what would possibly compel somebody to think their average marriage is any different than the other millions of people who couldn't make it work? YDI. Maybe if you'd found a better way of showing your love than getting a permanent drawing on your body, you wouldn't be in this situation.

Um, where did the OP state they got their spouse's name on them? A tattoo symbolizing a marriage doesn't necessarily have to mean names. It could be a picture they both loved or symbolized both of them in some way. But still, that sucks. If it actually is a name, hope you can cover it up. #99, what? They didn't say it was a tramp stamp, and they wouldn't deserve it even if it was.
