I didn't regret it at all, until I left him in October 2006. Now, I have this relic on my arm and it feels odd especially since I met my great love Humberto in June of this year. Maybe one day, if I have extra money, I'll have it lasered off. I'm not really feeling the mysticism of the 'Om' anymore. I've lost interest in it all, to be honest. Hard feelings perhaps, of how things turned out with my ex. I want to move on. If it was Mickey Mouse or a flower-wrapped tamborine, I'd be perfectly fine with it. But because it's written in my ex's language (Tamil) it is a constant reminder.

Yes. Also another good piece of advice! Never, ever get a tattoo based on a lover/partner. That's a recipe for disaster. *wink*
The only time that names of loved ones are acceptable, I think, is if it's family and/or your children.
