picking a tattoo

very true. I don't want someone picking for me. I like to pick my own thing. I have a tattoo and I designed it myself and my husband has the same one as me.

@ms1864 their is a reason behind us having the same tattoo

@ShyBear88 thats kinda sweet.

I can agree with you on that. I think making it my own choice of if i want something or not and designing it myself.

@ShyBear88 I wouldn't mind if someone chose something I really liked especially if it was unusual but it is permanent so it would have to be something attractive to me.

@sprite1950 the only person I can think of that could pick a good tattoo for me is my husband. He knows what I like and we talk about tattoos together a lot and bounce ideas odd do each other. We wouldn't let each other get a tattoo with our any meaning or reason behind it.

it's a big deal so I always tell people think about it a lot and then we you think you wanted think some more. The more you think about it the more you will either feel for it or not.

I think you are wrong someone is in,y going to hate their tattoo years later if you get it with no meaning or reason behind it. If will love my tattoo still when I'm 50 or 60 years old because I will still remember why I got that tattoo. I had a miscarriage and the tattoo of those small baby feet with the word loved under it brings me comfort and that I love that baby I never meet just as much as my three living children. When I get my second tattoo with my children name in the sign of the infinty I will love that tattoo till the day I die. I wouldn't possibly hate something with my children's names. You just can't assume that all people are going to hate something later in life people they got a tattoo.

@RubyHawk even old people,now men and women pretty much love them. Those that don't are very small. Normally it's because they got a tattoo with someone because theybthoughtnthry where in love or so,etching. Now ans last 30 years or so most people get them as reminders. Although my father in all just likes pain and gets tattoos cause he has the money for it. No real reason behind it.

@ShyBear88 you're right. I can't know how you feel. I was speaking from my prospective and tattoo's I've seen on older women.

Nice, I have one tattoo I designed it myself and my husband has the matching one of it on him as well. He designed all of his as well. He has more then I do. I plan on getting mine done for my birthday.
