NO!!! Ten years ago, I thought my man was the best thing since sliced bread. Y'know, he was good to me, would never leave me, wouldn't EVER cheat on me. For his birthday, I decided to get his name tattooed on my ankle. I came home from the tattoo parlor, he saw it and FREAKED!!! He said, What the hell did you do that for, dont you know I have been cheating on you for over a year???? OMG I was SO devastated. Even more so when I found out that not only did he have a daughter with me, he had another child born two days after our daughter. I have lived every day of my life regretting getting that tattoo--which OF COURSE cost WAY more to remove than it was to put on. Now 10 yrs later, I am happily married (over 5 years) with 3 more children and my stupid ex took off with my baby 4 1/2 yrs ago and I haven't ever seen the two of them again. :(:(( In short- DON"T TATTOO ANYONES NAME ON YOU EXCEPT YOUR BABIES AND YOURS!!!!

I had an ex boyfriends name tatooed on me. 6 months later we split up. I have now been married for 8 years and have had another tattoo put over it and you can't even tell what was under neath. If you get it done, you can always get it covered with a new one and it's a good excuse to get a new tattoo!

Unless it's your parents or children--tatooes can backfire on you. I had an ex-girlfriend's name on my arm and whenever I went out with someone it would always leave a bad taste in their mouth. I ended up getting her name covered. My advice is to get a necklace or something with that special persons name on it, so if you two ever break up then you can just stop wearing it.

Do what you want to do. Do not count on other peoples opinion on if you should get a tattoo or not. If it is something that you want at the time, then you should not regret it later in life, but look at it as a page in your book of life. If you do not stay with the guy then so be it, but if the next guy that you are with makes a big deal out of it then maybe he is not the right one for you. Also think of the flip side. Would you want your boyfriend to have an ex's name tattooed on him? Just something to think about.
and no tattoos do not cause cancer (lame) and no they do not hurt (depending on where you get them placed.)

Tatoos are permanent so make sure that you know things are going to last or that you can at least cover it up if you need too. If you are having any doubts about whether or not to do it then don't.

It depends on how long you have been together. If it is less than 6 months to a year, no. Anything can change and you may regret later having is name tattooed on you, especially if you are really into another guy. The new guy might be like, what is up with that? Go on your own instinct as well. Seems like to me if you are questioning it, you don't really want to do it. I personally wouldn't, but that's just me.

Why Not, I just got my fiance's name tattooed on me last week. She knows she is loved for sure. I thought about - what if we don't even get married - what will I do? Yike! Now, start thinking that way, she will run. Maybe I am just to young to understand of the lasting effects of the tattoo, I think I understand the lasting effects of our love, which I think will outlast the tattoo. I'm 62. She is soooo hot and I had enough faith in her love to go ahead with the tattoo. My advice is, if you are serious enough, go for it. PS - there was an eagle under the tattoo which was covered up.

I would suggest no! No matter how much you love him DON'T do it! You will regret it in the future. And what if later you break up and your new man has a bit of a problem with it, you can't just erase it (well you can but is costs). Or what if he beats you later in the relationship do you really want to remember that. Sorry to be so negative but you never know!

Only if you can honestly say that 10 yrs from now, lookin at ur (whatever body part u get it on) u will have no regrets of seeing his name there....whether u r with him or someone else. Had a friend who did her mans initials, but J.C. can mean anything other than his name.
