Today, I went on my third date with a great guy. We finally got round to talking about his tattoos. All 57 are related to his best friend. All of them. The best friend he never stops talking about. Somehow I don't think this will work out. FML

Jumping the gun

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

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

Today, I went on a date with a guy that I really like. At the last minute he informed me a friend would be tagging along. To keep his friend from being a third-wheel, I kept up a conversation, and managed to piss my date off. He thought I would be a better match for his friend. FML

Heavy rotation

By shescomfortablynumb - 05/06/2009 07:49 - United States

Today, I had a third date with a great guy. Over dinner, he told me that he wanted to see more of me. When I agreed, he pulled out his schedule book and started to tell me he was dating 5 other women besides me. He then told me what week in the "rotation" would be mine. He wasn't kidding. FML

Small talk is hell

Today, I was struggling through small-talk at a party where I knew nobody. Tattoos came up and I started talking about trendy, girly tattoos like feathers, anchors and infinity signs with stupid words in them. Turns out the girl I was talking to had all three. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. All my date would talk about was how he was 'really his own best friend'. 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 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 on a date with a respectable, successful, polite, and attractive guy. Ten minutes into the conversation, I find out he's a neo-Nazi and earned a swastika tattoo in prison for "something shady." FML

I'm surprised you made it to date #3 if all he ever talked about was his best friend anyway.

Why? it's bad either way. Anyone who has 57 tattoos related to a person they talk about constantly has more than friendly feelings towards them male or female.

I'm guessing the best friend is a girl. I'm hoping it is for your sake.

Is his best friend named Jesus or Mohammed?

He definitely has a very unhealthy...not to mention unnatural...obsession with his best friend.

understandable that this is WAAAAAYYYYY over the top, but what if his best friend passed away?

I think you can say "Bi-Bi" to that tentative relationship. I'm assuming the guy is Bi-Sexual or closet gay. No issue with that, but he's probably not promising boyfriend material if you were looking for something exclusive.

Who ever said that best friends have to be the same gender?

I wouldn't say he automatically has romantic feelings for his friend. Platonic love can be just as strong as romantic love. And like someone else said his friend could have died. Still that many tattoos to one person and talking about just that person all the time is concerning. It seems a tad excessive.
