Infinity symbol with "Love you more" on a wrist
Fine line · Forearm · Mixed · Photo
A black fine line infinity symbol loops around the words Love you more in joined-up script across the centre. A small solid red heart sits in the left loop, and the ink is crisp against pale skin. The tattoo is shown close up and centred on the inner wrist, with the surrounding skin softly lit.

A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction
Nobody at the reception could agree who had said it first, though your mother swore it was over a paper cone of chips on Margate front in 1994. By the time the speeches started, the phrase had become family currency. Your nephew wrote it on the place cards. The florist tied red wire into the centre of every table, twisting it into a sideways eight she insisted was the only symbol anyone would understand.

You had lost the argument so often that you had stopped keeping score, which is why you were almost annoyed when Tomas stood up before the vows and pulled a folded card from his breast pocket. He had drawn the infinity sign himself, badly, the lines wobbling where his hand had shaken, and beside it he had written the words in joined-up capitals that ran off the edge. He read them slowly, the way he read contracts, pausing for breath. Then he looked at you over his glasses and said, "I win."
You took the card from his hand and turned it over. On the back, in your own handwriting from a bus timetable scrap three weeks earlier, was the answer you had planned. You read it aloud: "Infinity cannot be measured, so neither can this. It's a draw, and we both get to keep going." The registrar laughed first, then the whole room, and Tomas pressed a small red sticky heart onto your palm, just as he had done in the chip shop when you were both nineteen and skint.
