Default Wedding Bands

Hello all;

my Fiancée and me are planning to have wedding bands tattooed onto our
ring fingers. Any advice you could offer about what to expect, prepare
for, and the limitations of a tattoo on a finger that size and that
position.

Thanks.

I knew one couple who had their wedding bands symbolized by flesh
removal completed on their ring fingers.

Cool.

Otoh, they're divorced.

So, what to expect? I'd say (odds are anyway) to expect divorce.

Prepare for divorce. Limitations would include, yes, a divorce.

And, as I'm a fan of Google, prepare for, "exposure and vulnerability
to the risk of a financially and personally ruinous divorce or
decades-long custody war." From:
http://www.divorcereform.org/results.html

How old are you? No matter. Divorce is the norm. Be aware.

Best of luck, of course. Although somewhat of a pessimist wrt the
outlook of success for any marriage (ya think?), I'll propose a toast
to the bride and groom without, however, endorsing any ring finger
tattoos. No.

On the optimistic side, I think it's a great idea. Not everyone gets
divorced.
My parents have been married for 39 years. My wife and I have been married
for almost 10.
As a tattoo artist and someone who believes in the sanctity of marriage I
not only endorse it, I've done it.
I still don't recommend names in the unlikely event a spouse passes away and
you wish to get remarried, but a wedding band can show other people your
dedication, love for another, and that you do have morals.
It's a tattoo. It still hurts the same but it will probably wear off a
little on the sides and bottom as time passes.

Sorry, overreaching a bit, there. A wedding band just shows you
are/were married.

Is that the first typo of 2007, Kavin? "JH," as the Jeff Hile
attribution thingy? Didn't want that comma there, did you? I mean, come
on, Kavin. Don't you think that the average person can figure out who
is saying what even completely WITHOUT brackets let alone your initials
attribution indicators? Just sayin'.

Imo, if you haven't been married then you're the one who's overreaching
a bit. Have you been married?

> A wedding band just shows you are/were married.


Izzat right? Many would disagree. Hiles being just one, obviously. And,
despite my rather negative outlook on the odds of marital bliss, I
count myself as another who would disagree with you wrt a wedding
band's significance and what it can represent.

And since your opinion with me counts for nothing . . .

Omigod! I'm so confused! Kavin left out his little attribution
initials. How will I even begin to guess who said what? How, I say,
HOW??? It's simply too difficult a task! Woe is me!

> And since your opinion with me counts for nothing . . .


Yes?

Well?

Still another dilemma! Kavin failed to complete his sentence! Whatever
will I, oh, dear, how can I, I mean, well, what could possibly be the
answer to this mystery?
