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, 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

1. tattoos are a personal choice 2. OP never said it was a name. My husband and I have matching tattoos. I also have tattoos matching with friends. some I don't talk to still, some I do

I'd agree with you if they'd just been dating, but it makes sense to expect a wedding to be a fairly permanent thing.

And now we learn never to tattoo somebody's name into your arm. It looks cheap and doesn't come off.

Don't remove it though, it's a battle scar! Now you have a great story to tell when you meet someone and they see your tat - and you can say, ya the tattoo lasted longer than the relationship - it just sounds like one of those cool lines out of a movie!

Getting a tattoo of someone's name is a surefire way to get fate to turn against you. No matter how in love you are, how perfect your life is, and how wonderful and pure your love may be, it's a better idea to get a shitty cartoon on your ass. YDI.

How sad it must be to live life as cynically as you do
