Today, I found out the tattoo symbolising my marriage turned out to be more permanent than the marriage itself. FML

Today, I got a tattoo with my boyfriend's name on it. As we're coworkers, I showed it to him thinking he’d love it. He told me he couldn’t continue the relationship anymore since he realized he wants to fix things with his wife. Three hours of pain and 2 years down the drain. FML

Today, I realized my husband and I have been fighting a lot lately, so to show him how much I care, I got a tattoo with his name on it. He hates it. FML

Today, I got piss drunk. Being a tattoo artist, I came to the intoxicated conclusion that I could save much more money doing my own tattoos on myself. I now have my ex-boyfriend's name permanently on my thigh. It's not even spelled right. FML

Today, I realized that the "holla" tattoo I stupidly got on my lower lip five years ago isn't fading as I expected it to, and will probably contribute to my unemployment for years to come. FML

Today, I finally got a tattoo of an alchemy symbol that I've wanted for years. I also found out later that symbol stands for urine. FML

Today, I went to get a tattoo of my girlfriend's name to surprise her. Halfway through the tattooing, she called and broke up with me. FML

Keep in touch

Today on my birthday, my wife thought it would be a good idea to get matching tattoos. Our tattoo artist happened to be her ex-boyfriend. I sat and listened to them talk about their relationship and how they should stay in touch. FML

that's why you never ever, ever get a tattoo of someone's name!

well, my cousin named her baby after her hubbie and got a tattoo of his name. technically, the baby's name (timikol) so even if they do divorce, it's technically the baby's nam.

#14 They deserve it because you have to THINK before you do something permanent to your body. I'm practically addicted to tattoos, and I would never do something so ******* stupid.

that is why you never get a tattoo symbolizing a relationship on you. it's like a curse. once you got that tattoo your relationship was doomed to fail. #14 the person does deserve it because, the person was an idiot for putting it on there in the first place. seems these days no one thinks before they get a tattoo on their body.

Haha I agree with the "sucks balls" approach. Or like Johnny Depp changing Winona Forever to Wino Forever. Genius. My cousin has a tattoo of his soon to be ex-wife's name too.

If the OP's marriage was going great at the time, I see nothing wrong with them getting a tatoo. How were they supposed to know that it would end up in a divorce? I'm not a tattoo person, but I really don't see anything wrong with getting your spouses name tattooed on you. Unless you somehow knew you would end up divorced? Anyway, good luck finding somebody else to share your life with. Oh, and I agree with #14.
