Dating advice need??

Question

I have been seeing this guy, who I met online, for about 3 weeks now. Over the weekend he goes and gets a huge tatoo on his shoulder. I'm really shocked about this and thinking I don't want to see him again. Am I being too particular here? The tatoo is a huge Gargoil (not sure that I spelled that right), which are very ugly looking creatures. He's a nice guy and all, but I am grossed out by this tatoo. I would love to hear anyone's opinion about this. Thanks...Susan

Answer 1

First of all yes, you're being too particular here. How someone decorates their body is a personal decision. If you truly care for someone, getting a tattoo - especially in a place where it can be covered - shouldn't turn you away.

Secondly, Gargoyle's are protective creatures that (mythically) keep evil away. Tattoo's are body art.

Try not to look at it as an ugly tattoo. Think of it more like unique body art with mythical purpose. :)

Answer 2

Its your choice actually. Its just a tatoo. If your going to stop seeing him because of a tatoo, thats not very nice. You judging him based on his looks ( i.e taoo ). No one should be judge on looks or anything but on their hearts. He is a nice guy, you want to blew it away for a tatoo, not nice at all. Maybe the both of you wont end up in a relationship, maybe you guys will end up being good friends. So dont stop seeing him, just hang around longer to get to know him better. There is no harm in doing so.

Answer 3

If you are questioning if you should keep talking to him over a tattoo, then I would say that there are deeper issues here. It may be your minds way of sending up red flags that this guy isn't what you need. I am sure that it is not just the tattoo that is bugging you, you just may not realize it. Gargoyles are ugly, but they have a purpose to ward off evil. do a google on the meaning and see if you still feel put off by it. But like I said, I say it's your body's way of telling you that he is not what you need. Good Luck

I dated 2 adult adult males who were shorter way shorter than me (i'm fairly tall). One lasted a three hundred and sixty 5 days and the different 2 years. You do get stares and persons have had critiques about it. yet I by no skill cared and also you would possibly want to not both :) if she makes you satisfied that would want to be all that concerns

Answer 5

everybody has some wants. i used to wanted hv tatoo also. and hun if u like him don't care that tatoo. if it is what he wants. maybe it made u a little afarid and u saw him somehow bad. calm down. try to know him more then deceide, but don't leave him just cous of it. look at his heart not on this what he has done on his body. but u know also tell him that u realy don't like that tatoo. i would do that to my man.

Answer 6

You prolly dont deserve this guy, youre too superficial. It amazes me how some people (you) act. Youre digging this guy.... he gets a tattoo and you dont like him anymore? Hes being himself expressing his creativeness through body art. So except it, love it. So many people hide and conform to society. How bout you meet someone and get to know them for THEM and not judge them from a little ink on their arm. He could be the greatest guy you ever meet.

Answer 7

I think you should stick to your principles and stop dating him. If you think its possible to look pass his tattoo you wouldn't be here asking the question now would you? Its just been three weeks so i guess its ok for you to stop. If you change ur principles for a guy that you met for only three weeks just reflects that you're easily suaved and he may take advantage of that.

Answer 8

Don't see him again if you don't want to. I hate tatoos, too.

Answer 9

Susan you have evey right not to want to see him again. I really would do the same thing

Answer 10

Don't drop your principals. Stay true to yourself and on what you want in a relationship.
