Long ago people would express their deep love and admiration for their mate in a love letter. Hoping that when their mate opened that letter they would mirror those same feelings. Nowadays people have replaced the pen with just ink, ink as in a tattoo. Some may just get the name of their mate tattooed on them.
Angelina Jolie with tattoo of ex husband Billy Bob Thornton
Others may get matching symbols and/or initials tattoos to show their love.
Khloe & Lamar Odom
But many are using grad gestures, as in getting the whole face of their mate tattooed on them.
Chad Johnson with tattoo of estranged wife Evelyn
Chris Brown with tattoo of his girlfriend Karrueche
Now, I will not front and act as if I have gotten a love letter since perhaps high school (unless Hallmark cards and sweet text messages count). But these very permanent (unless the painful, pricey cost of removal) expressions of love are becoming somewhat of the norm...o_0
So, are tattoos the new love letters?
Would you be willing (or have you) to get a mate's name or face tatted on you?
Or in Chad's case, would you take your mate back if they did this "grad gesture" to get you back?
