Seems like most of my friends wives were against them getting some ink done. But a couple of my friends just did it anyway and it turned out their wives actually loved it. Not saying you should just go out and get one anyway because I too asked my wife about me getting one. She didn’t care, she knew I really wanted one and let me get one. Just as…[Read more]

Pull your sacks out of your ass and tell her what you want.

You come here for sympathy after bad-mouthing your wife and blaming her and her family.

WTF – You sound like a whiny little bitch. Why don’t you show her this post you made and watch her reaction. Probably worse than if you came home tatted.

You need to be a bit more honest with your…[Read more]

my hopes were really high this time.. we celebrated our anniversary and as usual I included “tattoo” in my wish list… but she totally ignored it! 😡

i got her extra special gifts this time round! just so she’d think she…[Read more]

Thansk Asenath! Here I go one more time…

I feel really bored today… so decided to dig-up some pics and try and learn how to post in this forum…

This one is one of the many ‘fake’ tattoos I had… I feel really pathetic or maybe pitiful (is that the right word?) posting this… but what the heck… aside from henna these are the best i can…[Read more]

Why not get a fake one put on in the area you’d like one, surprise her with it and gage her reaction. She might see it and decide she likes it…or she might hit you, but, on the plus side, that it likely to be less painful than getting a tattoo done!! 😀

My wife is Israeli she loathes tattoos and threatened to divorce me if I ever got one. The fact my first was her portrait softened the blow but she tells me daily she don’t like my ink.

Thanks for the reply Matthew, really inspiring to hear your story. As of yet, I really am not ready to suffer the same kind of alienation…[Read more]

Though, FYI, if she’d really, honestly, 100% leave you over you getting a tattoo, your marriage is too damn shaky anyway, and she don’t love you. So either a) you’re right, she’s wonderful and loves you and would never leave you over this, so therefore you’re STILL using her as an excuse, which makes you too much of a…[Read more]

This reminds me about 5-8 years ago when I wanted a tattoo on my forearm. My wife said “NO, everyone will see it, and what about if you switch jobs?”. Well the point is I want everyone to see it!

My bother has two full sleeves and my other brother has a 3/4 sleeve. I would point out to her that its no big deal. Who…[Read more]

Thanks for all the opinons!

I knew I was in for some nasty comments but still thanks anyway for bothering! 😀

If there’s one thing that I wanted to add, it’s that I absolutely love and adore my wife. 🙂 She is the most beautiful and wonderful that every happened to my life.

..and on that basis alone I would usually let her get her way on these…[Read more]

On the bright side, her cuntitude has prevented you from getting a bad 90’s, Red Hot Chili Pepper inspired tattoo that’d be hard to cover up.

Though if you want my opinion, and even if ya don’t, it sounds to me like you’re making excuses. Yes, your wife should have some input on what…[Read more]

Sorry to hear about your situation. I admire you for respecting your wife’s desires, and not bad-mouthing her on here because of them. With that said though, I do believe you should fight for what you want (figuratively speaking). I think sometimes people forget how short life is…and you only get one! So keep talking…[Read more]

I work in a seriously stuffy/judgmental industry so far as tattoos go – I’m a lawyer – and having any visible tattoos while I’m working would be a serious issue. However, I’ve got 2 pretty large shoulder caps which, unless my boss comes with me to the gym:eek:, I can always cover, even with T-shirts. To be honest, I’m alway…[Read more]
