Nothing screams undying, true love like getting matching permanent couple tattoos. It’s almost as big of a move as moving in together, meeting each other’s parents or even getting married. As lovers, we are obsessed with conveying the permanence of our affection in any way we can. Some do this by gifting their mother’s bangles to their significant other or proposing with a huge diamond ring, while others resort to giving photo albums and heartfelt cards. We appreciate both grand and meaningful gestures we receive from our partners that express their feelings and love. So, it’s obvious why the thought of permanently etching your bodies with matching symbols of the deep love you share is both exciting and romantic.
Here are 5 reasons why couples in love should consider getting meaningful matching couple tattoos

Remembrance of special moments
While clicking a picture or writing about a special moment in your relationship is lovely, some occasions require a little extra something. Milestones in your relationship, such as your first kiss or wedding day can be memorialized through ink. A great way to commemorate the day your life changed forever and also a helpful reminder of why you are together when going through tough times!
During fights, one forgets all the good moments and only bad memories clutter the mind space. Sometimes one reminder of happy times can mean the difference between giving up and fighting for it.

More pain, more value
It’s simple logic – one of our primary motivating drives as humans is to avoid pain. For us to actively seek it out, as is done when getting a tattoo, means whatever we do it for holds great value to us. Knowing even a small heart inked on the side of your wrist caused you pain will make you want to cherish it more.
Additionally, the fact that the love of your life went through similar pain to get the same tattoo as you will make you value not only the tattoo but also the precious person who you got it. Isn’t that magical?
