![]() Wow!! All these views on the topic and no one has an opinion or help for us? Thought for sure there would be all kinds of interest! Guess not.

![]() Firstly, you should practice patience in certain matters.
I've seen threads with a hell-of-a-lot more views, and the number of replies are not astronomically high. You have to consider that not everyone viewing the forums, is necessarily a member of ILI or logged in. So those can't answer. Secondly, a tattoo is something very personal - in the end it's only the person getting it, who can decide, maybe with the help of the tattoo artist, if it's something difficult to be realized. Now, I sometimes tend to be quite honest when saying things. If after having "done a considerable amount of searching trying to find exactly what we want." the two images you have attached are the only ones you came up with, then that's really a sad excuse for having done your research. I think my nephew (who's not even in pre-school yet) can probably draw more interesting figures. Why do you say that the selections are limited? - Of course there's always the "Queen of Spades" - in the case that she is into black guys (considering you're on ILI - it's a good guess). - Variations on MFM symbols, there are different ways these can be set up (since I'm answering I ran a Google Images search, and have already seen a few different ones of those). - Actually writing the words - many different fonts, sizes, styles, possible. - Using Chinese Letters - just don't ask me which. - A symbol, animal, flower, something that's meaningful to the both of you and that symbolizes the relationship. How about a cuckoo? - Draw your own (though if your talent to drawing is like in the one you posted, leave it be - it reminds me of those pre-saved images on MS Word that you integrate into text in 1st Grade computer class). Get someone with some artistic talent to draw something. Matching tats for both - depends. Personally I wouldn't do it. No one can guarantee that your relationship's going to last forever. A tattoo is going to last for the rest of both your lives. It should be something you'd still be comfortable with when you're 80 and taking the grand-kids to the pool. You didn't say anything about where you'd plan on having them made on your body. How discreet or open it should be, etc. Those are things to think about when giving it thought. You might want to check out some temporary tattoos first, to sort of try it out and see how they look, before having an actual one done. Last edited by alyna; 10-09-2012 at 10:10 AM.. |
