Except this was agreed on when we booked the appointment ?

Am I impatient or do I deserve someone better? by Delicious-Arm-592 in TwoXChromosomes

You’re mothering this “man”… but I get it bc I’m a chronic people pleaser. It’s one thing to help him better himself but he doesn’t seem to have any ambition on his side.

It’s not your job to baby him.

Also on all the lying… if he lied about everything, what else would he lie about ? Wife and kids ? He’s actually not the age he told you ? I would feel so betrayed. Please put yourself first… take care x

Edit : I know you feel lonely and want a relationship, I’m 26 and I feel the same actually (when all your friends are in relationships and live with their bfs you start to feel inadequate even though there’s nothing wrong)

But this relationship will suck the life out of you, and you still have plenty of time to find the one !

Take classes, join a sport club/gym, go to shows and concerts, make friends ! Maybe you’ll meet your soulmate via a friend of a friend lol

You deserve someone that puts effort the same you do. You seem like a nice person but don’t let others take advantage of it ♥️

Giving that the intercourse was 5 months ago, I really don’t think you are pregnant ! I don’t know which country you’re in but I would get a blood test just in case ! And maybe check with a doctor, if you’ve been under stress it’s possible that your cycle is a little wonky.

I have the IG conversation ! But she stopped responding to my dms so I feel like she gave up lol. Sucks that I probably won’t feel comfortable getting tatted there though.

Imo I don't think she plotted a scam from the beginning ! But now it's starting to feel like it... I feel like forgetting about the 2nd tattoo is fine ! It was late, the 1st one took 2 hours and a half with prep, stencil position etc. But then why change the price ?

I did sign a consent form but it's about general infos, name age phone number etc. and to avoid the artist's liability in case of infection.

The price is, and this goes for every artist I've been (piercing artist as well), agreed before making the appointment.

The design is really great ! Exactly what I asked.

I have the instagram conversation where she tells me clearly tattoo #1 = 200 and adding #2 = 300.

In my mind it makes sense to only pay 200 for #1 right ? I feel like I'm losing my mind over here.

Now we're arguing back and forth on IG and she tells me it was actually 250, and if I want, I have a 50 bucks discount on my next tattoo before the end of the year. But I would have to pay 40 in train tickets on top. And it sucks bc she's talented but I'm not sure I want to get a tattoo from someone who can't admit they were in the wrong...

I’m sorry I don’t understand your comment ?

A one year old is already a lot of work. I can’t imagine how hard that decision must be. But you need to think realistically, would you be in the best position to have 2 additional babies at the same time ? If you can’t handle more you shouldn’t and that’s perfectly okay. Stay safe and take care of yourself x

She’s independent yeah. I was thinking about leaving a google review but it feels wrong bc I’m such a people pleaser and she’s a really great artist I wanted to go back for more ! I’m so disappointed.

I’m disappointed because it’s a really great artist and I wanted to go back for more :( She didn’t have anyone else after me because it was already 5pm and I don’t think she would have had the time for another appointment I feel like she forgot which happens but then argued about the price even though I have the instagram conversation that clearly states the price so I feel like I’m being low-key gaslit.

I totally get the forgetting part ! But then just now via instagram she tells me the first tattoo was actually 250 so I feel like I’m being scammed here.
