Currently at 00g, goal size is 1/2in... but my girlfriend doesn't want me to go up to 1/2in... her side is she thinks I'm not gonna stop at 1/2in and that I'll never stop stretching my lobes... My defense is: I HAVE TO FUCKING WORK... I'M STAYING AT 1/2in OR MY BOSS WILL FIRE ME!!! lol. anybody else dealt with a significant other that was against stretching your lobes? I'm slowly getting her to be ok with it, just thought it was funny.

1/2" really isn't so far off from 00. It's only what, two sizes? Trust me dude, the first chance you get without getting fired, you'll probably stretch. I swore up and down to my parents I wasn't going to go past 00g. I told my uncle who was also my boss that I wouldn't be going any bigger once I did reach 00g...well, I ended up at 3/4" with every intention of continuing up to 1" till I came to the private Christian school I'm at...they don't allow guys to have piercings in :( now they've shrunk back to 00, where they'll stay till summer when I'll go straight back into 7/16" and probably continue up till I come back in august.

they are your ears not hers, she should be willing to except whatever you wish to do with your own body within reason lol. im actually stretching for me and my husband. he joined the navy so he is unable too stretch now. In any relationship the two people should be supportive of one another. if your goal size will bring you a little more happiness than she should be your biggest cheerleader

well since I posted this she's completely fine with my goal... she just knows i have a tendency to... get a little bored easily... and is scared I'll end up going to a size that'll severely effect my future... I made it clear that until I get my hair license (I'm going to become a hair dresser) or end up being in a sucessful band (I'm also a vocalist) that I have no intentions of going bigger than 1/2in. I know what you guys are probably thinking and I'm not a sceenie weenie... my fashion sense would actually be closer to a HxC kid than anything if you were to judge based on how i dress, but I hate labels more than anything. And my hair is neither straightened or in my face lol... its not very long.

but yeah... I got her to be ok with it :) she just knows I tend to get bored with my ear sizes too easily lol.
