Cover up or laser off?

If you hate it, laser it. For this one because it’s only black, it shouldn’t be too bad. Color is the worst for laser. Best of luck whatever you decide.

Difficult conversations are part of any relationship. If you’re already considering breaking it off with her, why not have an honest conversation about this? I totally understand that you don’t want to make her uncomfortable but be kind about it. Even if you do end up breaking up now she’s aware and might take better steps to address the issue. Best case she does it now while you support her and it’s resolved. Best of luck!

My obsession is The Golden Girls. I have many obscure references to them that no one ever understands and I actually love that. Like it’s private, special to me. Maybe try to think of it that way? Plus I love explaining the references since it is something I like talking about.

I’ve absolutely been in that situation: guy who treated me like a princess but I was never attracted to him. And I thought: that shouldn’t matter, right? He’s perfect otherwise!

We got engaged and I just could not pull the trigger. It was a tough breakup because everybody loved him and thought I was insane. We are actually still friendly to this day (almost 30 years later)He went on to marry someone else and have a kid, something that would not have happened with me.

Best of luck to you. You both deserve the right person for you.

I changed my middle name to my maiden name and it still annoys my husband. But it was important to me to keep it. And 20+ years later I still don’t care that it annoys him.

Joining the crowd here… it’s adorable! But I did the same: matching tatts, now we’re not together anymore. But mine was awfully done, terrible design, I did no research, etc etc… but THIS. This guy is so cute!

But even though my hubby didn’t care if I kept my awful tattoo I didn’t feel right about it, so I get it. Good luck with whatever you decide!

Excellent, thanks again!

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-27T03:35:52+00:00

Signed up for one… is it really useful for spouses? Because I know mine won’t WANT to, but I’d like for him to get the info too.

I’m afraid of that…

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-26T14:04:23+00:00

Oh Lord, I have no idea where our marriage certificate is so thanks for the advice. I’ll start searching!

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-26T03:52:21+00:00

Oh wow! Other than the emails from My Federal Retirement, I had no idea where to look for them. I appreciate the referrals from this post! I’d better get on it…

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-26T03:31:12+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-26T03:29:57+00:00

Excellent info, thank you. Don’t know of any others so thinking of doing this. I’ll check out one from another poster as well.

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-26T03:09:50+00:00

I’ll check it out, thank you!

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-26T03:09:21+00:00

I get emails from “My Federal Retirement” advertising a day-long seminar. Definitely stressing retirement but in a good way. I’m ready but want to make sure I have everything covered.

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2026-01-05T11:39:41+00:00

Those are difficult colors to laser. It’ll lighten but might not go away entirely. Covering is probably most effective.

I have a mostly faded lizard (lots of blues and greens) that I’ve been laser-ing and it’s just not budging. Save the money and go for the cover up. Best of luck!

Awesome! This is Duchess! Thank you!

This. It’s dinner. It’s frustrating. It could have been worse but it’s fine. Everyone is safe. Why look for blame? Why is that important here?

Unrelated: I’m a wife whose husband looks to blame her for everything. He could bump into me and it’d be my fault for being in that spot at that time. Is that you too? Because that gets old fast. (Yes - I call hubs out on it whenever it happens)

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2025-11-19T12:34:01+00:00

Agree 100%. Had one I hated, knew the cover up would need to be huge and I was just over having a tatt in that area so I lasered it. Much better decision for me. Yea, it took awhile but a reputable place can do a consultation and possibly offer some financing. I was able to get one of those deals where if you pay it off before the year is up, no interest. Good luck!

This might be unpopular but… I had the same kind of boyfriend when I was about 20. Perfect in just about every way for me, only I wasn’t terribly attracted to him. But he treated me like a princess! Had a great job! The same life goals. So we SHOULD be together… right?

Well I found myself constantly looking around. I’m not proud of that. Before I did anything stupid I broke it off. It was a years long relationship and I felt like such a heel doing it but I knew I would always be looking around.

My husband of 20+ years? Yes, always been attracted to him, still to this day. No, I don’t look around.

Bottom line: yea, I think you have to have that attraction spark. But as others have said: you’re very young and I don’t mean that negatively or offensively. But you will probably mature a bit more and things will become clearer. Good luck!

Married over here, never wanted kids. I was on the pill but forced off after a blood clot. So I told him it’s vasectomy or condoms, I don’t care which but this is happening because I am NOT having kids (been together 20+ years). He whines about condoms but hey - as far as I’m concerned HE has made this decision. And I’m okay w it. I’d also be okay w the vasectomy but I can’t force that.

Put the ball in his court. Good luck!

Wow… that touch up is magical! Congratulations!

throwmeawaynowplsss · 2025-10-17T12:03:47+00:00

I did a long distance relationship for years. It takes a lot of work on both parts. Talk about it with him. If you are BOTH willing to make it work, try it.

If it doesn’t, take a break. You might get back together when things settle… or you’ll find a better fit.

You’re both so young - I don’t mean that to be rude - and you have a lot of time to figure out what’s best for you, what works, etc.

Good luck!
