"Why did he not tatoo your own face on his body with the words “my life” as well? That tells you everything you need to know."

Reacting to this, a psychologist, Justice Adjei Ocloo, told YEN.com.gh that from a psychological point of view, people usually tattoo their partner's names and images to assure their partners of their commitment and loyalty.

He mentioned desire for permanent commitment, and insecurity and possessiveness as two potential reasons that might trigger people this course of action.

"The act may symbolize a deep emotional bond and desire to demonstrate lifelong dedication to the relationship. Some individuals may use such tattoos to "claim" their partner or ease anxieties about the relationship's stability," he explained.
