My girlfriend (20F) and I (19M) have been struggling as a result of her new tattoo
My girlfriend got a tattoo on her leg about a month ago it’s not very large maybe a little bigger than a half dollar. I cannot seem to get over it or stop thinking about it. I have always really disliked tattoos and found them very unattractive and distracting. I feel like I can’t think about how pretty she is without thinking about how much I dislike the tattoo and that I wish it wasn’t there, that she was prettier before it ect. She has explained the meaning behind it which is that it relates to her lifelong nickname and her favorite part about nature. We also discussed the possibility of her getting another, because she mentioned she might want one, but after seeing how I’m handling this she suggested that she wont get anymore as long as she has complete freedom with her hair. To which I agreed. I just worry this isn’t a healthy compromis, and I also feel I can’t look at her the same, all I see is the tattoo and how much I dislike it and how it hurt me when she got it. Before the tattoo we were discussing marriage but now Im not sure if I can marry someone that I can’t look at without thinking about how she could be prettier without the tattoo. I don’t know what to do, I don’t want to leave her, but I don’t know how to get over this and stop thinking about the tattoo. Any help is appreciate. How can I get over this tattoo or what should I do?
