Should You Ask Your Spouse for Permission to Get You Pierced?

ALBANY, NY (NEWS10) – Today’s 98.3 TRY social dilemma came from Jacob He emailed me asking to use this as our social dilemma because he’s trying to let his wife know why he’s so upset. She doesn’t think she did anything wrong. He hopes that hearing what others say will influence him. Here is Jacob’s email:

Jaime, I’m so upset. My wife had her navel pierced last weekend. I’m ticked on this. She is 51 years old. At her age, she shouldn’t have her navel pierced. It’s something teenagers do to drive their parents crazy. She’s a grown woman. When I asked her why, she said “because I wanted to do this for a long time, so I did it.” I think that’s a stupid excuse. She never even told me she wanted it done. I wouldn’t go get a tattoo without at least talking to her first. She should have asked me before doing it. You do not think ? Please use this as a dilemma. Thank you

Well, I think it’s her body and she does what she wants with it. On the other hand, it would have been nice to tell her husband first. However, I admit that I once got a tattoo without telling my sweetheart, but it didn’t cause any drama. So what do you think? If you have to discuss a move like this with your spouse, or is it “your body, your decision”, I think ultimately it’s your body, your decision, but that would be fine. talk about it first.

What do you think? Let me know on the TRY the Facebook page.
