Lack of support for tattoo?my partner is so against tattoes and I LOVE them. I would never just get a tattoo?

for the sake of getting one and looking %26quot;cool%26quot; like so many people I know have done. I so far only have one tattoo,its a kunji(i think thats how you spell it) symbol on my the top left of my back which means family,i got this tattoo done when i was 18 and i was going through a tough time and my family was there for me even though i had been treating them very badly. I very soon want to get another tattoo done,it will be off my baby%26#039;s footprint with her name and a couple of pink rosalie azaleas on the top right of my back. I will be getting this one to honour my baby,she was the missing final piece in my jig saw puzzle of a life,I know feel complete. Ok,i suppose i should get back to the point,my partner doesn%26#039;t want me to get it done. we actually had a tiff of it last night. i askedwould you leave me if i got heaps of tattoes and he said yes.


so my question is should i get this tattoo done without his support or live by his wishes?

It%26#039;s your body and you can do what you want with it. Explain to him that you are getting it. You have thought about it and aren%26#039;t just getting one to get one. You are smart to think long and hard about what you are getting. Is he really worth it if he is going to dictate to you what you can and can%26#039;t do with your body? Find out what is such a turn off for him about tattoos. Explain to him you are getting it and would like his support on this. If he is unable to support your wishes then leave it up to him to either deal with it or let him show how shallow his love for you is. It%26#039;s ink on your body. Does he only love you for that, or does he love what is inside of you too.
Reply:your husband is a shallow person---most people who get tattoos get them to symbolize something like you wanting your babys foot print---if he loves you he wont care how many tats you have---he should love u inwardly as well as outwardly---get the tat---you are yourself it is not going to change your personality or behavior---he needs to let you do what you want with your own body
Reply:Well first off Im not sure why your partner has such an issue with this.. My wife has seven and they have nothing to do with the inner person.. But in her words she wishes she had never gotten them. We do get some stares in certain situations.. But bottom line its your skin.. I guess you have to decide whats more important if he wont change his views..
Reply:I hate tattoos. I think they look common and cheap. And my son went and had some done, and I find it really hard to look at him, without a shirt on. I try not to comment, because I do love him, but it is something that I really loathe.


So actually, if your man is important to you, I%26#039;d think twice. You don%26#039;t want him to look at you with loathing, do you? I%26#039;m lucky, it is my son who knows how I feel, and puts a shirt on whenever I walk into the room.


Take the money and do something else with it - have a portrait done of your daughter and put it on your wall. At least that way, you can both enjoy it.
Reply:I agree with Emily... get a portrait done. Why disfigure the body your partner loves.
Reply:Youre entitled to have your own opinion on this and you have every right to do what you wish with your body. The thing is, your partner has every right to have and excersice his opinons and beliefs as well. If he has made it that clear to you that he is against it, even gone as far as to say he%26#039;d leave you over too much of it, then its up to you to choose whether the possibility of losing him is worth getting a tattoo.
Reply:I like tattoos and have 2 on my back..I want to get work done to add to one of mine I already have..my boyfriend don%26#039;t have any and don%26#039;t understand why there so important to me..but in his words...%26quot;I love you for who you are and if you having them on your body is that important to you then I will just have to overlook them...just don%26#039;t expect me to jump up for joy and acted all happy its there!%26quot; Tattoos make you the person you are, and if he can%26#039;t accept that...You have to decide if he%26#039;s worth keeping!
Reply:Go ahead and have the tattoo done. Your partner will at first freak out or may also shout at you......but after sometime he%26#039;ll be fine. Try to explain him that its important to you and its in da honour of your child.....this should be your last tattoo if you go for another one then may be he%26#039;ll feel that you dont care about his feelings......so think about your partner also dear. but get this one done since its in the honour of your child
Reply:You need to do what you want to do. No one controls you or owns your body except you. If this is what you want to do than do it. If your partner loves you I mean truely loves you your partner will not leave you over such a minor thing.
Reply:Well you gotta decide whats more important. Your tatoo or your bf. Its like the wife who asks him to get rid of his Harley.
Reply:Your a grown woman and it%26#039;s your body not his. Don%26#039;t let him control you.
