Am I out of line if I get mad that my girlfriend got a tattoo on her breast?

We are in a serious relationship. We have been together 2 years and live together. Am I out of line to get mad that she got a tattoo on her breast? Or am I just being too possessive to not want strangers seeing her breast?

  • I can understand why you would be upset that she got a tattoo in such a noticeable place without asking your opinion on it. It also depends on the motivation behind getting the tattoo. Was it more about the art or getting attention? Is it on the top of her breast? Like, if she wore a tank top would you be able to see it? If that's the case, then yes, she's probably inviting attention and I can see how that would make you uncomfortable.

    I would just sit her down and calmly explain why you feel so uncomfortable. Getting a tattoo on your back isn't the same as getting a tattoo on on area like the breast (on a female) that so readily gets attention anyway. Tell her that while you're not exactly happy about it, you respect her decision to express herself as she chooses and as long as she doesn't let anyone touch her breast, or "take a closer look," that you'll be okay.

  • I mean if you don't like it you don't like it but she got it and it's not going away. Tattoo's are something you should get for yourself so it doesn't really matter if you like it or not as long as she does. I personally think tattoo's across the chest are a little trashy but some girls really like them and if they like them then they should get them (with the understanding that they're there forever and won't look so great 50 years from now). I can understand you not wanting people to look at her chest but if she has big boobs anyway it'd probably happen anyway. But like I said if it's already there there's no point in being mad at her because it's not going away.

  • no I do not think you're out of line at all. she should respect your thoughts and wishes. she should have at least warned you about what she was going to do.

    • I guess that's how I feel. She didn't even tell me she was getting a tattoo. It's her body and her decision and I understand that, but I feel that a decision of that size should be talked about, even if it is her decision in the end. Personally, I don't like them at all, but would feel much better if she had discussed it with me beforehand. I would not do something like that without at least asking how she would feel.

  • regardless of how long youve been together or how close you are, or even if you're married or not, her body is not your property and she CAN and WILL do what she pleases with it, with or without your consent. For you to think otherwise is just plain wrong on a level I can't even understand.

  • yeah its kind of an iffy place to get a tattoo and a little bit out there , you see them sometimes but not that often

  • Well I don't think your out of line there on that bro. Like that's a permanent decision and she made it without talking to you first. It its a serious relationship I would figure that she would have talked to you about making the decision.

  • In this situation your anger is understandable. Being as this is a serious relationship, the two of you shouldve come to a compromise. These are things to consider before making permanent (marriage) decisions
