Today, my boyfriend of 2 years took me to get a tattoo done with his name on. He paid for it. After it was done he told me it was over between us and he thought it'd be a nice reminder of him for me. 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, my boyfriend confessed to me that the only reason he's with me is because I'm a good tattoo artist and he's too broke to pay for his own tattoos. We've been together for two years. 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

Today, my boyfriend of three days met up with me at the movie theater, sporting a crude tattoo of my face on his cheek, along with a love heart and the word "forever." Looks like I'm single again. FML

Today, my tattoo artist boyfriend of five months gave me my first tattoo in celebration of my 18th birthday. It was supposed to be a heart with my name in script. He spelled my name wrong. FML

Today, my fiancé freaked when he noticed the tattoo on my wrist, and demanded to know when I got it. It was two years before we even started dating. FML

Today, I decided I was going to dump my needy girlfriend. I was about to break the news when she stopped me. She showed me her new tattoo she had gotten. Our names, surrounded by a love heart spread across her back. She reckons I should get a matching one. FML

Today, my boyfriend gave me the painting he had been working on. It was a heart with wings, my name, and the date we started dating. We have been dating for almost a year and a half. He misspelled my name. FML

People need to learn not to tattoo their boyfriend/girlfriend's names on them.

Go back and have them put "takes it up the butt" under his name. Then show that to him.

YDI for going in the first place. That shit is permanent and most relasionships aren't.

Can you sue him for this? I would figure out a way to take his ass to court. This is very abusive.

unless your boyfriend is rich, i call fake. i dont know why anyone would want to PAY to break up with someone. on the bright side, at least you got that asshole out of your life!

tattoos are bad luck for any relationship. you DEFINETLY deserved it despite it being a huge dick move on your ex.

#165- Tattoos are not that expensive. A hundred bucks, maybe two, depending on how big it was. Maybe less because it was just a name. You must work for less than minimum wage if you couldn't manage to save for one.

LOL sue him? Are you retarded? That's not being abusive. That's just being a dick, and outsmarting a very very dumb person. YDI for being so ******* stupid.

i'm not certain i even believe this, especially once the OP came back and said she was 5 months pregnant. i have NEVER heard of a place shady enough to tat up a pregnant woman, for the same reason that they can't get pierced. it is a shock to your system and it DOES affect the baby. if it DID happen, then YDI even more for getting a tat while you are pregnant, much less that fact that it is his name.

I'm sort of with #56. I don't think I'm superior, at all, not by any stretch of the imagination. But I pretty much always know what my boyfriends are doing or about to do, as far as our relationship goes. It's kind of an intuition thing. I can feel it if he's being dishonest, and I can definitely tell if I'm about to get dumped. I'm a bit of a tattoo enthusiast myself, but I would never, NEVER, have someone's name etched permanently into my body. Time for some Wrecking Balm, sister.
