I was thinking the eye of horus (protection against evil - the female eye).

That would be pretty and fitting. I have a butterfly and a fairy. Where would you put the ink?

So what motivates you to get a tattoo? How do you decide what and where? What kind of tattoo should I get? Where? I'm just curious.

It's something I thought of doing for a while. I think they're cool. I chose a butterfly because its such a strong and free creature. It's on my right shoulder blade. I choose the fairy because Lola pointed me to this artist Amy Brown and I fell in love with the art on her website. The fairy is on my left ankle. I want one more. I'm going to get an Aries symbol on the nape of my neck.

I was told they are addictive and once you get one you want more. With tatoos you never say "only one".

I'd love to know why Mel wants one!

Well, I'm at work so I need to get off soon. I'm still pondering over if I should send that entire email. I see both sides. Not pushing the issue & yet I don't want to avoid talking about things - because that's what got me here. I want to start clearing the air. Email is safe. In a way I want to mention it .... because if/when we do meet we can focus on other topics that are more important than the OW. Arg.

IMHO I wouldn't send the email that you posted here. You want to drop the topic and come across in a favourable light before he goes to NH. You want this reaction from him "WTF is up with her" because he expects you to say something and when you don't he's going to be curios. Do the complete opposite of what he expects.

I kinda like this: upbeat, positive, non-threatening and with the expectation we will talk. Just make it sound like Mel. Don't mention OW it pushes him towards her. You want to vent do it but not to him. I know this sucks. Hang on you'll be fine.

He knows your on to him so play it cool. You gut wants to rip into him but it's not time for that now. Act don't react.

Thanx for your IMHO. I see your point. Do you think he expects me to bring it back up? The thing is - is in our last meetings he did bring up R issues (1st ours & I blew if off & then a friends & I blew it off).

So - it almost seems the opposite of what he expects would be TO mention it. I suppose at this critical point I shouldn't be hasty.

I think the best you can do is be upbeat and positive Mel. Come here to vent and kick and scream but to him nothing.

No R talk right now. Especially before a trip. You want him thinking positively of you not beotching about you
