Woman Wakes Up, Finds Tattoo on Ankle

Mandy · Kate Spade

wow. thats crazy. i would definitely break up with him. it would be different if she said she wanted one and he did it to surprise her, but to do it after she said she didn't want it, thats wrong. unless she gets it removed, she is going to see that for the rest of her life and think of him. at least its a good story if anyone ever asks about her tatoo. im not sure if i would press charges, depends on how much i hated the tatoo.

CarrieS · Marc Jacobs

Oh god. They're from here too (40 miles away)......If that ever happened to me, I'd kill someone or demand that they pay for the removal

calichic · Dooney & Bourke

That sounds HORRIBLE. I can't believe she isn't pressing charges. I personally would be so pissed bc I don't want a tattoo either (too permanent for my fickle personality) and to wake up with one?!! I think that the bf needs to learn about respect and so should get some kind of punishment.

NCshopper · Hermes

Wow. Yeah, that's grounds for a break up.

I'd sue his ass to pay for the removal and to teach him a little about respect for women. It seems like he used the tattoo to mark her as his property or something and yeah, that's just not really okay in my book.

Oh, and PS--I have a tattoo on my foot and it hurt like a bitch. I can't imagine what on earth she was doped up on that allowed her to sleep through that! Weird.

Kelly · Hermes

oh. my. god.

I have no idea how she slept through that, but I would definitely press charges. That's psychotic!

atlgirl · Gucci

Er...was the sleeping pill at the bottom of a tequila bottle?!

I'd definitely break up with someone who did this. I never want to have a tattoo, and from what I hear, the removal process (should she opt for that) is more expensive and/or painful than having a tattoo put on.

What a Bastard.

exactly my thoughts.

although, just to play devil's advocate: I wonder if she really said she never ever wanted one, or if she actually expressed interest in the idea but didn't want to because of pain reasons (in which case maybe he saw the opportunity and thought he was doing her a favor). OK, so probably not and wouldn'tmake him an less of an ass but it's a possibility...
