We’ve talked about beautiful spring tattoos, we’ve talked about the sexy summer tats, & even some charming floral ink, but what we haven’t touched on is tattoos related to love & romance. Now, I know what you’re thinking; tattoos with your partner’s name on it are not your thing. Thankfully, that’s not what we’re talking about. Today, we’re talking about couples tattoos that have some type of relation to each other. Whether it’s two pieces of a quote, half a heart, or even something a little more conspicuous. Because we understand that it can be iffy getting someone’s name tattooed on your body, but there are plenty of other ways you can still honor your love through your ink! Here are some of the best couple’s tattoo ideas that exist!
1. Romantic Split Tattoo
Many popular couple’s tattoos usually have to do with splitting something in half on each of your bodies to represent the whole that comes together. A few popular ideas having to do with this are half of a heart, half of the flower of life, yin & yang, bow & arrow, sun & moon, or lock & key. Of course, there are many other ideas you could use for this; this will at least give you a little something to start thinking about!

2. Hidden Meaning in Geometric Patterns
Another excellent couple’s tattoo design is some sort of geometric shape. The coolest part about this is that this design is different for each individual. Usually, these’s designs are black & white. One person will have the black patters to it, with a section of the missing white. While the other will have the white section filled in, missing the black. This is to represent the “missing piece of the puzzle.”
People come up with many designs with this, including animals, flowers, shapes, & more. This one is less obvious if you’re still not quite ready to display a “couples tattoos” on your body, but the meaning of it overall is beautiful.
