| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 5/24/2007 1:01:23 PM | the tattoo I have on my lower back is sacrosanct. It involves words from our wedding vows, and our initials. To have that is an honour , and anyone that couldn't handle it has no right being in my life.
Just an opinion | |

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 5/24/2007 1:02:22 PM | I did. A tattoo... A huge ol' honkin' to always remind me when I look in the mirror in the morning what NOT to get involved with again...
Cheers! | |

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 10/19/2007 10:10:44 PM | Sorry for resurecting this thread i had something I wanted to throw in there and in the process not start a new thread and get ripped for it.
So here's my question..
Not the name of an ex but a symbol or picture that had something to do with the two of you and some sort of enscription perhaps a poem or something similiar. Not one that talks about how much you still love them but something more along the lines of an apology for the mistakes that you made in said relationship. Now mind you this is not something for them its for yourself. I myself am pretty heavely inked and for each monumental moment in my life from a relatives death to a best friends death its immortilzed in ink on my body. In my mind this would be no difference. It would be a symbol that you've come to grips with whats happend. Any thoughts on this? | |

Commemorative tattoos are cool, but there's always something sexier about a symbol or object that holds meaning to the people in a relationship, than a "Property of Kelly tattoo across your a**. Plus, a unicorn isn't like a nazi tattoo if you ever split up!  | |

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 10/20/2007 1:03:39 PM | Silver I agree.
My original post many moons ago didn't explain that the reason I have part of my wedding vows & mine & my husbands name across my lower back; it's because I lost my husband within a week of our wedding. For me, it's an honour, a reminder and a memorial, not for anybody else, just for me.
No matter how you want to ink your body, ultimately it comes down to what you can live with. If people cannot accept you with certain inkings, then they have no business being in your life.

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 10/20/2007 1:23:20 PM | | I have 4 tat's. 2 on an arm,the other arm is a half sleeve,and 1 on my shin. Thay all represent me at different stages in life.But the only 2 women's names I'd have put on is 1. My Daughrter, and 2. my Mum. Getting one with a relationship attached to it, is like tempting fate too much in my opinion. | |

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 10/25/2007 7:37:18 PM | | Ok here is what my stupid ass did but I dont totally regret it either. I was engaged to the love of my life and while he was overseas I got his initials tatted on my thigh. I knew better and I did it anyway. In fact one of the first conversations he and I had in the first week we met was about how I would NEVER get a man's name tatted on me.....EVER! Well, thats why they say "never say never". Anyhoo, I had his initials tatted and it was all my idea. I got it in my head to do it and I couldnt let go of it. But the thing that I kept telling myself was how this man had changed my life, even if we didnt make it, I knew he was a moment in my life I wold never forget and wouldnt want to forget. I was married for 10 years before I met my now ex fiance whose initials I have engraved on me. And my husband of a decade never reached within my soul and touched it like this man could on any given day. Even when he was an ***hole. So yes, I do believe in immortalizing a relationship, but you have to be careful and really know what you want. I may choose to have it covered. I dont know. But if I do I would like to leave enough of visible for me to see at least. And I would have it covered with something that didnt replace his initials but rather renewed an old tat with a far better picture. If I ever do have it covered, Im not sure, but if I ever do it will be with an American bald eagle to represent alot of things that relationship brought into my life. Far too many to list and explain here. But it would still remind me, probably even moreso then now, of how he changed my life, if even for a little while, and made me a better person because of it. And thats all I want. Because I will never forget him. Its impossible. | |

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 10/25/2007 7:48:11 PM | | I use to tell my (now grown) son and daughter that it wasn't a good idea to put a tattoo of a girlfriend or boyfriends name on themselves ~ because girlfriends and boyfriends will come and go. I suggested if they wanted names on their body, it should be that of their children, or another relative, perhaps a parent or grandparent. They didn't see the logic of it then, but they sure do now. | |

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 10/25/2007 9:13:27 PM | I was married and after my husband passed away and in memory of him I got a tattoo of an angel with his name above it. If a new squeeze has a problem with that then I know they are not secure with themselves... I will never regret it because he was definitely my soulmate... (not to say there's not another one isn't out there, finding two in a life time is very hard to come by)
Now if they're still on this earth, anything can change and I would never do it. | |

| Tattoos of your ex? Posted: 10/25/2007 9:16:17 PM | I'm thinking of the movie "Born in East L.A. with Cheech Marin. Where he is expected to cover or redo the tatoo on the huge cell mate with his ex-girlfriends picture tattooed to his chest. Gun on one side blood and brain bits coming out the other. Swweeeeeeet !
No ! Really !! When the woman I'm with goes to peel my shirt off, in a dimly lit room, I don't want to stop and explain what it all means. I just cant see dragging that much of my past along into any new relationship. She is an ex. She is no longer in my life or any part of it. If I wanted to keep going through that I would have tried to stop her. The ex has left enough damage in her wake. I am lucky enough that I dont wake up, spend any spare moments or go to sleep reminiscing (sp?) the "good times". I sure dont need any extra reminders, good or bad. She is gone.

Getting one with a relationship attached to it, is like tempting fate too much in my opinion. A true statement,that is.About 2 years before my divorce, I got my ex wife's name tattooed on the back of my neck.The guy at the tat shop said,"You know,they say that when you get a tattoo of someone's name,the relationship will go bad within 2 years"Yeah,right I said.Me & my old lady are never gonna split.
Well, almost 2 years to the date later,she ran off and left me for her brother's wife's father,a week after she met him,but not before causing me a whole mess of legal problems,which I am still fighting to get out from under.
So the easiest way to get a tat with an ex's name,is to get it while you are still together. | |
