My name on your body...

Written by Tshd21 from the blog A trip 'round Tshd21's mind.. on 03 Apr 2008
Favourite this post


It all started when my gals and I decided to go on a window-shopping spree broke that I was left with a very big question mark. I came across someone's name tattooed on someone's body part. I also spotted a red heart surrounding that tattoo. Okay, the name could have easily been of their child, relative etc. But it sure sent me back to a supposedly forgotten situation...

An ex-boyfriend of mine once proposed that we do the same - tattoo each other's names on our bodies as a sign of the love we had for one another. I looked him straight in the eye and asked what was wrong with declaring each other's undying love every day...verbally, that is....My question was answered by his tantrum, his back and my pride not letting me call him and apologise for my childish behaviour WTF? as my gals suggested/thought. Poor friends thought Mr Tattoo was the best male thing that's ever happened to moi...He was tall, dreadlocked, cute lipped, a charmer of note, bought goodies everytime he rocked up at my room ko tertiary LOL and respected the fact that I was not ready to give it up yet. Needless to say, that was the last time I saw him...

A couple of years down the line, with absolutely no memory of the taste of his juicy lips, I do come across this scenario...His name on my neck (the part he suggested), the one place I later discovered that when licked (and still is going to be licked), sends shivers down my spine. Phela I was still an innocent Kelly Khumalo then, leV, legammane la mmatota. So really...how would I have explained that to my painful "teacher"..I silently asked myself? Well, that's if he wasn't a Mr kiss, fiddle with them boobies, faddle Ms fanny and if she's "ready," jump right in type of brother....I consoled myself.

Either way, questions came rushing through my mind. Phela those things are permanent. What happens when people break up? That brings the phrase I will never forget him/her to a whole different level!!

But then again.......there are people who have done it, are thinking of doing it or will do it in the near future...they just don't know it yet!

Anyway.......fabulous dudes and dudettes...... 

Have u ever found urself with a lover's name tattoed on your body part and are you two still together? 

Assuming you two broke up
1. How did you explain it to your current lover? Or the person who gets to see it!
2.How do you feel everytime u c the name, especially if he/she broke your heart... but it's very visible on that certain body part? 

And If you've never done it
1.Have/are you ever thought of doing it?

Indulge a sista please.....

A lover's tatoo..Hell No! I just wont be able to bear lookin' at such a tatoo when the relationship goes down the drain. The process of removing tatoo's is even damn expensive....

My partner and i have similar tatoos-not of each other's names though. Even if we broke up, i wouldn't regret having it done cause i really like it and it says nothing abt our relationship. It's a tatoo that appealed to the 2 of us and we had it done-different parts of the body though.

I would never put anyone's picture on my body-not even my baby cause that's what photo albums are used for!!

My religion doesnt allow me that. my principles either. And besides if some1 nos u love them, why do u need 2 prove it over and over. I think we as humans have forgotten the true meaning of love, we do things to please others and loose ourselves in the process. I dont have a problem with people with tatoos (most of ma friends have tatoos), but me over my dead body !!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Well I think thats not a clever ding 2 do, i know when people r inlove dey do some CRAZE dings bt having someones name on ur body is not on. We all know when a relationship is still new u have dis idea it'll last 4eva (not dat de is anything wrong  wid a little faith) bt in relationships u must learn to leave dat room 4 dissapointment, that maybe it wont work out. So its safe if we dont ruin our bodies wid something dat cud be a painfull memory and keeps reminding u of da past. Some relationships end up in a messy way so i dont think anyone is willing 2 take da chance of having something dat brings back bad memories.

@ Andi: I think we as humans have forgotten the true meaning of love, we do things to please others and loose ourselves in the process... 

You are so right....and to think that we last saw each other as boyfie and galfie on that day.....I sometimes wonder how I would have explained the name if I had agreed to do it....

Interesting topic Tshd...

My cousin has a tattoo near her fanny, I asked her why she did it, she said it was suggested by her boyfriend (now ex) and she was doing it because she loves him.  I ofcourse thought she was crazy!!!!  Fortunately for her it was not the guys name but a disguting looking 'angel'....hehehehehe...now she's stuck with that thing...i still cant imagine how she sat the whole time clearly with her legs open while the tatto artist did his thing...ya! things we do for love....

My Partner and I have done Tatoos of rings on our ring fingers and yes we are now thinking of doing another tatoo together, but thina we dont do names we do symbols on the same spot on our bodies....so mina ngithi there is nothing wrong with it

But would you ever do a tattoo of your partner's name on your body Moonch?...

I know a couple who did tatoo's on their wedding fingers. They did get married but they are now in a process of divorce. So they are stuck with each others memories everytime they look at their fingers. They have been married for 6 years. It's a very messy divorce so I would not reccommend it.

i dont think i would Tatoo my partners name on my body simply because its long (thats means more money and more pain) and i Love my name more so if my body had to have a name tatoed to it it would be my own name
