It's not a given that your relationship will be bad if you get a tattoo of your SO, but let's say you don't stay together. He's stuck with your name on him. My cousin and her boyfriend got each other's names on their inner wrists. They broke up. Luckily for her, his name was Chris, so she could change it to Christ. Her name can't really be changed to anything (I believe it's starlight in another language). He's stuck with her name in a very visible place on his body. So it's not a good idea to get the name or initials of anyone who isn't part of your family permanently. So only blood related family members should have their names tattooed on your body.

A tattoo artist said he used to, for ethical reasons, refuse to tattoo boyfriend’s names on girlfriends. He knew what a mistake it was. They just went to other tattoo parlors.

He said he now does them any size for $40. He knows the women will be back in a year and pay him $1,000 to cover it up.

Thats smart

I did have a coworker, who, if she was in shorts and a tank top, had tattoos showing with five different boyfriends’ names. I guess she didn’t have the five grand to cover them.

Doesn’t necessarily mean it’s gonna end badly. But if and when the relationship does end, having a permanent reminder of that person on your body hardly sounds ideal. Not something I’d do personally.

Luck and luck. I agree with him.

Not only that but if you instead go with something more subtle it will be your secret. Which to me is more intimate. If you need a property stamp on your partner you're not in a position to get one - although I suppose I can see the fun in it.

Superstition but he has a point. Single men that tattooed their then girlfriend name on their body will feel like it was a misstake.

Instead. Tattoo somthing that symbolize your relationship. That way if things go South he'll just have a cool Tattoo and memories.

I don't know if it's the truth or not but I just think putting someone's name on your body is a bad idea. I understand he said he wants to have a history of his life but he can do that without naming everyone he's been with

[Wsx2wsx2ws]

Well laugh my ass off. A tattoo is more permanent than a ring. And a ring comes with commitment. So I think its just stupid. Unless every woman he dates is named Jessica. It will work if he got a tattoo for Barbra.

Its definetly not smart to tatto other people names on yourself, i always see thst and think wow thats dum. Smart guy he is.

[boggboss]

Yep only names u get on your body is parents or kids never get partners

[WizzardGirl]

didn't know that👍🏽

[RACSKC0B]

Your parents, and your children, that's it. Otherwise NO NAMES!

[driven159]

don't know if it makes for a bad relationship but it does make it uncomfortable if the if the relationship ends and the next person sees the name all the time

Lol he’s not sure your relationship will last. Which I don’t blame him, most relationships don’t.

[slatyb]

Truth. Most relationships end.

[EaterPeter]

Hmm, that is interesting

[EaterPeter]

I think that's right in most cases.

[EaterPeter]

Mother Sister or Daughter may get place that might be better.

[WizzardGirl]

He wants to include his parents names
And other things

[EaterPeter]

But not yours and you feel excluded?

[EaterPeter]

Most guy would want to put their girl friends name if they like her enough

[EaterPeter]

I wrote my ex wifes name on my forearm as trial tattoo and she threw a huge tantrum

[EaterPeter]

That I was trying to cover up something wrong I have done.

[Jamie05rhs]

It may very well be bad luck; who knows.
