My girlfriend that I've been with for almost two years is half Japanese and half Caucasian. I really want to get a tattoo of a Japanese symbol such as love or something like that. Anyone have any ideas or links to a good website. It must be Japanese though since it would mean much more to me.

Kanji is what most people get when they get Japanese characters tattooed. Here is a site with the word love like you wanted, along with 49 other words. Hope this helps!
Just make sure if you are going to get something in another language tattooed on you that you know what it means, and that it is correct. My cousin made the mistake of using the symbol out of a tattoo magazine they had at the tattoo shop she went to, thinking it meant one thing, and it actually meant "bend over"! So do your research beforehand!

Don't do that... oriental symbols are SO old and cliche... they're a dime a dozen. They're generally laughed at by artists and people who know better. Get something more original. Sorry, I just wanted to give you some advice from somebody who's into the tattoo scene.

I would ask your girlfriend to teach you some characters. Once you find one you like you can take it to a tattoo artist and have them make a really cool version for you. Just make sure you find a GOOD artist with a portfolio that you like. And make sure it's a symbol that you'll like even if you and your girlfriend aren't together someday. Have fun!

I'm learning Chinese, and personally, I think Chinese characters are prettier. But whatever, just look in a trusted book for the one you want to make sure it means what you think.
