my husband wants to get his ex-wifes name tattooed on his arm with a knife going through it. Does anyone know what this symbolizes and also I don't want him to get it. It just seems to weird to me,he has been divorced for 4 years and she was having sex with another man in there bed and he caught them.

I told him how I felt, and he said it represents hatred for someone. I even asked if he still loved her he said in no shape or form does he.

Do I even need to tell you how rediclous that sounds? Let him get your name with a heart and tell him to LET GO of the ex!

I don't blame you for how you feel. It is very wierd and strange to want to do that. It seems like he feels she has betrayed him and the knife could symbolize how she broke his heart. He should be able to work through his issues with that situation without tattooing her name or anything else on his body. It could also symbolize the hate and betrayal he feels for her too.....I would try to talk to him some more and convince him he should have your name with a rose and heart on his arm and that his past is his past and he needs to move on from that part of his life.

first off it is kind of rediculous that he would want that in the first place, he has you now... and if he wants his EX-wifes name on his body that is not right.... it may represent hatred for someone but why would you want to put that on your body.. .you can hate them, fine, but keep that too yourself, you dont need to put something like that on your body... just remind him that it was over 4 yrs ago and he needs to just let it go, if he gets the tattoo then he will always have a part of his ex with him, he should move on and be happy with you

He is allowing this women too much control over his life. He should be so happy he found out when he did and be happy he has a wife that doesn't act like trash. Why would you want to look at her ugly face (even if a knife is in it)

Don't let him do it, it will look like he got her name and then decided it was a bad move. If he is really insistant, have him get a morbid looking pinup or something they SYMBOLIZES his ex being killed. Or better, how about something that symbolizes his love for you! Names of people are never a good idea for tattoos unless they are memorials.

I find this weird, why would he want this woman permanently on his body, I know he's trying to express his dislike, but I wouldnt want to see a tattoo with my ex's name everyday to remind of the crap he put me through... Just seems odd to me, now your name in a heart OK that I could understand

Sounds like he still loves his ex wife sorry to say that would be unacceptable with me it should be with you but the more you say no to something they want to do it more just because u don't want him to. Find a sneaky way to get him to change his mind it cause cancer, she might hate you more girl don't like that something pray and God will give you the answer

Well sorta seems like a reminder to him of what she did. I would feel like killing my spouse if she did that to me. Of coarse I'm not saying he is contemplating murder but its just the feeling that the tatoo symbolizes.
Nonetheless, I wouldn't recommend him to put it on because it more like not being able to let go. And the tatoo would be a constant reminder to both of you. He shouldn't want to remember and it will take a long time to get over it, so having a tatoo about it is not going to help.
You should ask him and tell him how you feel about it. Tell him you feel its like a reminder and he shouldn't be reminding himself of negative things. Tell him to get one with your name and your marriage date and forever so he is reminder of his new wife, you.

I think your husband needs some anger management therapy. He needs to move on, especially since he has married another.
