To tell me friend the tattoo she is planning is weird?

[Vagaceratops]

I have two friends, friend A and Friend B.

Friend A lost her DD 3 years ago, and at the beginning of the year had a tattoo in memory of her DD. Its of a cherub and at the bottom is a scroll with her DD'd name.

Friend B has three DD's. She has decided that she likes friend A's tattoo so she is going to get one too. She wants three cherubs holding a plaque with her DD's names on.

I think its weird. A) because its copying B)because its insensitive.

Should I say something. Friend A doesnt know about B's plan, and I know it will make her upset.

Tattoos are very personal, and therefore it is up to the person having them to choose what they want. I would not get involved at all. If friend B upsets friend A then it is up to them to sort it out. If friend B had a tattoo with the name of friend As daughter, that would be weird. How do you know friend A would be upset? She may take it as a compliment. Either way, none of your business, but if friend B were to ask your opinion, answer honestly.

I don't really think friend A has the monopoly on cherub tattoos as they're very common.

I can see why she might be upset, but it's not like she personally designed her tattoo so that it's unique...if she had then I'd say YANBU and friend B should design her own.

It do think it is a bit odd that she'd choose that tattoo design out of all possible tattoo designs.

Some people just aren't very sensitive, it may not have ocurred to B that A might be upset. Personally I'd tell her in a diplomatic way that A might not like it. If she decides to go ahead anyway well then it's her choice and you shouldn't let it worry you further.

I'd mention to B that it might be insensitive to A, and ask her if she'd consider something else. She may not have thought it would upset A.
