Tattoos Are For "other" Women.

Bett

I wanted to do something different, so I decided to surprise him and get a tattoo. Every time we’re out, I see him checking out some young girl with tattoos and piercings all over the place, but he’s acting like I committed some sort wife violation by getting one myself. I know they call some of them “tramp stamps” but that’s just a joke and I’m not any less of wife for having one.

Sean

Tattoos are fine for other women, without husbands, without kids. There are certain things a man wants and then there are things a man needs. I might have wanted a GGW in the past, but now I need a wife. She didn’t need to change. She knows she’s exactly what I wanted. If that wasn’t the case, I would not have married her in the first place.

i hope to god you two are in your twenties at the oldest. You both sound incredibly immature. Let me get this straight. Bett, you got a tattoo cause your man keeps staring at babes w tattoos so you thought he’d like you in one? It’s not like you went blond for a week, you altered your skin in a very expensive, painful & permanent way.
Sean, since when do you get to tell any woman, let alone your wife, what she should do with her body. This entire incident could have been avoided if you both had some communication skills.

I have something to say and it will be very bold….Sean if you don’t think your wife should’ve gotten a tattoo then maybe you should not stare or look at other women…maybe she feels less attractive for you so she got it…since obviously you like looking at other women…you are married! Didn’t you get married so that you didn’t have to look at any other women?

Wow Sean, really man? I say 2 points to Bett for stepping out of her comfort zone to do something that she thought would raise your themometer. Not only is it a very nice tatoo (2 bonus points because I know it had to hurt), but in reality it is something that she did for you and you will be the only one to see it other than her 90% of the time. The only time that anyone else will see that is maybe at the beach or at the pool, and no offense but judging by this picture that tattoo won’t be the first thing that other people are looking at if Ms. Starflower should happen to be wearing a two peace. You should be more appreciative that your wife will appearantly do ANYTHING for you, and less judgmental. You’ve got the best of both worlds.

sean, you’re an idiot. Bett is still the same wife and mother. I am 51, attractive, have my fair share of dates etc. I have one tatoo that no one can see unless I want them to. Also, I am planning to have my deceased father’s favorite Bible verse tatooed on my back, where do one can see it unless I want to show it to them. Sean, get over it. You’re just jealous because you are afraid other men will find it sexy…and with your attitude, she just might like to find out how other men feel about it. Suck it up and quit being a baby. Oh, and always checking out chicks with tats and piercings when ya’ll are out…I would say you are probably a cheater or well on your way to becoming one. m1…watch him, he’s double standards all the way.

Sean, she may have done it with you in mind, but that doesn’t mean it’s only about you. She wanted to do something out of the ordinary. You married her, but you don’t own her, she is still an individual with the right to have a tattoo. Lighten up she didn’t commit a crime.

Sean, you do realise that those “other women” may actually get married and have kids, yet the tattoos stay there. Getting a tattoo doesn’t make her less of a wife. It is her body, and her decision. And why are you checking out young girls with piercings and tattoos every time you’re out?
Bett, getting a tattoo is something that requires a lot of consideration and planning. I really hope you got it for yourself, because YOU like it. I notice it is a big piece, so it definitely wouldn’t have hurter to ask your husbands opinions before just rushing out and getting it “to do something different”

Ha, ha, So “wives” can’t have tattoo’s and she committed a “wife violation”?, that’s funny. M1 it’s her body and she should be able to adorn it however she wants. Change can be a good thing and the thought that “wives” should not get tattoo’s is laughable.

A tattoo is not the kind of decision you should make on a spur of the moment. All of us have heard about people who have tattoos of an Ex’s name on their arm, surrounded by a little heart, long after the relationship ended, which they cannot get removed.
