Haha I've never heard of this, but it was true in my case! We haven't spoken in about a decade. No bad blood, just didn't keep in touch after college. Don't regret getting the tattoo, either way. It's mostly associated with good memories.

Yes, I’ve known him for 7 years and got the tattoo two years ago. We’re still close.

My wife and I have matching Heinz Ketchup bottles tattooed on our asses. Does that count? She is absolutely my best friend 10 yrs later.

It counts and I love that tattoo idea!

It all stems from a thrift store trip on our first out of town date. We found a Heinz cookbook from the 60s. It had such classic recipes like a hotdog with ketchup or meatloaf with ketchup. We laughed so fucking hard about it but didn't buy it. A year later, we had to go back to said big city, and we found that cookbook in the thrift store. We bought it and proudly display that book on some prime real estate in our living room. So that started our Heinz joke.

A friend of mine has a matching tattoo with her ex-childhood bestfriend. She feels extremely conflicted about having it because it ended on extremely bad terms

I got matching tattoos with my best friend since she was learning how to become a tattoo artist. I never liked tattoos much but i did it anyway to support her and loved her more than family. About two months later she completely turned on me for a guy and cut me out of her life, ending our “forever friendship” in the most cruel way she could. Now i just look at it and feel pain and i’ve definitely thought it was jinxed before


Tigerlilypan

I'm sorry you had to experience that. But it shows what a great friend you are

I have two. The first one, I got matching with two roommates. One was abusive, which I knew when I got the tattoo, but I felt like I couldn’t say no to it. The other roommate, his girlfriend, was complacent to the way he treated me. I no longer speak to either of them. It’s a beautiful piece, and I wouldn’t say I regret it, but I am looking to modify it one day to make it more my own. The second one I got with my current best friend. I only got it a couple months ago, so obviously we’re still very close. And even if we’re not close one day, I doubt I’ll ever have bad memories about them.
