Advice- husband vs. piercings?

So I have been married for a little over a year, and my husband is opposed to me getting some piercings. He was okay with some tattoos i got, and my nostril piercing... he even said he'd be hypothetically okay if I wanted a labret, lip, or eyebrow... But I really want a septum, and maybe a vertical lip/labret. He says he doesn't like these and doesn't want me to get them. Now, he's not a controlling husband in general, but this situation is making me upset. Do I go with my instincts and do what I want with my body... or do I respect my husbands opinion and preferences and not get the piercings???Advice- husband vs. piercings?
I can see both sides of the story very clearly.





The girl I'm dating right now wants a TON of facial piercings (just about whatever they can peirce on your face, she wants it.) I really care about her, and I'm not opposed to piercings what so ever, considering I have quite a few. But what I'm worried about (which may be the same thing your husband is worried about) is I might not be able to see the same sweet, beautiful girl I met when we first started dating. But I love her, and I want what she wants, so I'm not gonna tell her what to get and what not to get.





So what I'm trying to say is, I bet your husband would understand. But if I were you, I would talk to him about it, and see why he is opposed to it. Also maybe in vite him to go with you?





Hope this helped! :)Advice- husband vs. piercings?
its YOUR body, not his. and if he really truly loves you #1 he'll see past whatever you look like and love you anyways and #2 realize that its your life and it will make you happy. just because you're married doesnt mean you're his property. those days are over!





go ahead and do it. its your body, your face, and honestly, if he loves you he'll deal with it.





go get pierced!
You have every right to do what you want with your body - But he also has every right to not be attracted to you (looks wise) because of it. Which is more important to you?
It is your body and your choice.... But marriage is about being flexible. What is more important, your man or some metal?
its YOUR life and its short!


do what you want!


no one should hold you back from what you want!


if he loves you he should understand!
its a tough one! wen i met my BF i had one tattoo (he had none) and he really didnt want me to get anymore, so i agreed! nearly 4 years down the road, were stil togehter wit a beautiful baby girl... i have several more tattoos and ironically hes got an appointment in the morning to get one of his tattoos expanded into a 3/4 sleeve!! i think some times people have certain ideas about how people perceive tattooed and peirced people; maybe this is part of wats putting him off? best thing you can do is ask him why he feels so strongly against it, and also give him your reasons why you want the peircing!!


at the end of the day a peircing is very easily removed and allowed to heal over, maybe you could suggest it on a trial basis...he might end up really liking the peircing!! im sure your husband loves you very much and should respect your decision, but it may just be something he finds really unnatractive...and if it repulses him maybe its not worth it?!
