Today, my boyfriend of 2 years took me to get a tattoo done with his name on. He paid for it. After it was done he told me it was over between us and he thought it'd be a nice reminder of him for me. FML

Jumping the gun
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, my boyfriend confessed to me that the only reason he's with me is because I'm a good tattoo artist and he's too broke to pay for his own tattoos. We've been together for two years. 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, my boyfriend of three days met up with me at the movie theater, sporting a crude tattoo of my face on his cheek, along with a love heart and the word "forever." Looks like I'm single again. FML
Today, my tattoo artist boyfriend of five months gave me my first tattoo in celebration of my 18th birthday. It was supposed to be a heart with my name in script. He spelled my name wrong. 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, 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
Today, my girlfriend dumped me for the tattoo artist who gave us our matching "love" tattoos. FML
Today, my fiancé freaked when he noticed the tattoo on my wrist, and demanded to know when I got it. It was two years before we even started dating. FML
Today, I decided I was going to dump my needy girlfriend. I was about to break the news when she stopped me. She showed me her new tattoo she had gotten. Our names, surrounded by a love heart spread across her back. She reckons I should get a matching one. FML

People need to learn not to tattoo their boyfriend/girlfriend's names on them.

I'm not a lawyer, but this seems to meet the definition of criminal fraud, i.e. deception with the intent to damage someone. If you can get evidence that he told someone about this ahead of time, you can sue him for cost of removal and pain and suffering. Good luck.

Here is a great example of why we can vote for both YDI and FYL... I have no need to say anything else other than I agree with the majority of the posters.

Totally agree with #13. Tattoos are permanent unless you have loads of money to get it lasered away (you don't burn the ink away, the laser only targets the protective layer of the ink which causes it to disolve and the ink to be naturally asorbed by the body)... Its the same for everything, don't tattoo someones name (children or someone lost are an exception), don't tattoo something you've just grown found off. Tattoos are personal (I'm talking about the general idea of tattoos, not the junky-I-look-good-with-tribals-guys), they should represent something major in your life. They work of art if done right and could mean so much, in its purest form its a way to gather energy and serve as a constant reminder of what you have to be happy for (mind you, tattoos started as part of a ritual of protection, energy and help in ones work).

This post is most definitely interesting in many regards. It is really a great debate subject, because; Argument A: Your boyfriend did something terrible. & Argument B: You made a terrible mistake. Now when you think of it, we really don’t know the age of this girl, so we have no idea how experienced she is with controlling her emotions for her significant other. We also have no idea as to whether or not this is her first serious relationship or not, which would explain a lot. Although we can assume she is in her late teens to be able to get a tattoo, unless she has ways around that age barrier and knows the artist personally. So we can't really judge her and say she made a "stupid" or "retarded" decision, because this could be her first "love" or she could have self-esteem issues and would resort to anything to feel wanted and a sense of belonging to her now ex-boyfriend. Also, like people under the spell of lust, this girl was most likely so infatuated; she probably made this decision in a weakened state. I wouldn't call what her and her ex had "Love", I would call it "L.O.V.E." (Lust Overcomplicated via Emotions). We also have no idea as to how long these two have dated. So maybe, if it was for a while, she probably thought she could seal their fate by accepting, what seemed to be, a very kind gesture on her ex-boyfriend's behalf. The gesture alone must have made her think she was adored by her ex. On the other hand, some people have brought up a really good question. What could she have done to make her boyfriend at the time think of something so diabolical? Because I'm sure that took some deep thought on his part to think of something so unforgiving in the first place. Maybe she did cheat on him, maybe she didn't, we'll never know. Or maybe they didn't even date for long, meaning her ex was just a terrible all together, or extremely hurt by something she did. Maybe someone her ex knows, put him up to it, regardless, it would still make him a terrible person to go through with it. One thing is for sure though, revenge wouldn't solve a thing, this girl who technically offered herself to become a victim of this evil plan, would just be sinking to his level, unless he already sank to hers considering she may have actually done something just as terrible to him and we just don't know it. But none the less, revenge only leads to more revenge, and that doesn't solve anything. My advice: They talk about this, she forgives him, he pays or helps pay for the removal of such tattoo, and they both part their own ways. If it were me, I would have made him get my name on him at the same time if I really wanted to go through with such an idea, it might have made him rethink his actions. At the same time though, I just don’t think permanent tattoos are a great idea. None permanent ones on the other hand would have been a great suggestion at the time. At least you know it wouldn’t have lasted forever. But seriously, whatever happened to the carving of initials in a tree? Anyway, I will not say this person deserved it, because without all the facts, I don't have the right to be honest. But I will say... if this does not get resolved accordingly and puts her through mental anguish as long as it bothers her and remains on her skin, then FHL. Hopefully though, she learned a valuable lesson from this experience.
