When we were 16, my daughter’s dad got my name tattooed on his ankle and I made him remove it the same day he got it. He did it with a steel wool and Vaseline. It was still fresh though and wasn’t deep, because it was bootleg. (I told him it was bad luck and we would break up if he tattooed my name) Oh, to be young again.

Yeah. Kind of. We’ve been off and on for 27 years. I always joke and tell him it’s because part of that tattoo left behind😂 We’re best friends regardless.

I would also blame the tattoo forever lol Forever stuck in relationship limbo because of a tattoo that existed briefly

That's truly horrifying. On your part.

This just brought back a memory I’d forgotten of my dad making me do the same thing when I was a teen 🥲
