SO I'm supposed to get my tattoo today...

...as per my 30 things before I'm 30 list...but my OCD is totally kicking my butt about it.  I'm afraid if I get it, it will be bad luck, and something bad will happen to DD...sometimes I wish I had a "dimmer" for my brain.  *sigh*

Couldn't "decide once and for all that I don't want one" be on your list instead?

If you're having any thoughts about not doing it, then don't. It's permanent and painful and maybe you can change your list to be...didn't get a tattoo that I will regret for lifetime before I was 30.

I have 7 tattoos and I love them. I have my kids on my legs, my little sister on my back and a few others. I am not trying to talk you into anything but I personally love mine and I love my tattoo artist. If you really do want to get one I would suggest looking into some tattoo shops and meeting an artist and looking at their work.

Like the PP said, I love my tats (I have 5)...but I also have never had any doubts about them. My husband has anxiety and regrets one of his tats, and really wants it removed, and it bothers him A LOT. If you are having any doubts now, I don't think you should go ahead and get it, at least not today. Think about it more.

I'm also with the love mine group, but they definitely aren't for someone if they have any doubt.  I have 3, including one right between my shoulders that says "princess" that I got when I was 20.  I'm sure many people see that one and think trashy, but to me it represents a time in my life where I was single, spoiled, and lived life to the fullest.  All of mine can also be covered up with clothes easily.  I wouldn't like them as much if they were visible all the time like on an arm of ankle.

I agree, if you have ANY doubt, don't do it.

I have 2, a daisy on the right side of my lower back and on my ankle I have mine and DH's first initials intertwined and surrounded by 3 stars, each one the color of the kid's birthstones. I don't regret either of them and had no doubt getting them.
