I have two and before I got them I was really into seeing them on different people and hearing their stories, now that I have some I'm like "eh..." It's like getting a new phone or a computer, you get really excited about it before and the first few days but then it just dies down.
And the pain! OMG... I am not addicted.
I don't mind them on guys so long as it's not on the chest or abdomen, and definitely not on the neck or face! I am not a gangsta girl!
