You could love someone so dearly, so dearly to tattoo their name on you; on you for the rest of your life!!! Damn thats some way to show your love for someone... Both my husband and i have each others name tattooed on our bodies. I got it first, 9 years ago... when we were only teenagers and dating... he got it 2 years ago once we were engaged...What possess you to take such action, what are we trying to prove or accomplish by this. Who does this more often? men or women? I got it because i was crazy about it... and still are and i thought he was the best thing that happened to me and i knew i would have love for him for the rest of my life i was only 16.

I've always thought about it, but never done it. I have been with my g/f for 6 years and am still thinking about it. Not saying we will break up, but you never know what is in the future. I was thinking of just doing her initials maybe or just her first initial. Something small, but cute. It is a decision that will be with your forever, so it is something that needs to be thought of well before doing it. And congrats on the 9years plus!!

I gotta say... once you ready, you'll know. both of did not consult each other before getting it done... i got mine without telling him and he got his without even mentioning it to me. once we got it, it was a done deal, no presurring each other and i guess thats what made it even more genuwine. i know it'll be there forever but i believe that forever i will remember him even if we did divorce. I see it somewhat of a suvenire of our time and love together. He meant something for me then and he will mean a lot to me 20 years from now... would never cover it up or remove it. You also have to think of where to get it... mine is not visible to everyone... you know what i mean :p and and neither is his. He has it on his rib cage and he can show off his more than i can show off mine...:P but they are tasteful... But again once your ready you'll now and if your still hesitant, than you shouldnt. xoxo

Personally, I would never get anyone's name tattooed on me except maybe my children. Because if we were to break up or divorce I would so not want to deal with having to get that removed or covered up, LOL. However, I don't think that you will have that problem since you guys have been together since teens. Sounds like a strong love to me :)

I would not have anyone's name tatooed on my body. I do not think that you have to show your love for someone that way. If the relationship did not work out or if it ended badly I do not want to have a constant reminder of that person on my body. It is great when people are high school sweethearts and they end up getting married, that in itself shows how much you love each other.
