Dating : In the context of dating, when is the best time to mention that you have a uvula piercing?
Hey everyone,
My friend (38M) broke up with his girlfriend somewhat recently and is in the process of going into a bit of a daredevil phase. Most notably, he has plans to get a uvula piercing pretty soon (if you’re not familiar, it’s getting the flap of skin in your throat pierced).
He doesn’t have the piercing yet, but he’s wondering – when is the best time to bring it up during a date? Should it be brought up as soon as possible, in a very direct manner, or would it be more fun/playful to yawn and « accidentally » show it off?
In addition, would a uvula piercing in and of itself be a dealbreaker in the context of dating/relationships?
Off topic, but no professional piercer would actually do a uvula piercing. They’re a major health risk, they’re difficult to clean and they’ll constantly trigger your gag reflex. I’d strongly advice anyone against getting one and I’ve had around 40 piercings in my life. This isn’t a daredevil action; it’s plain stupid.
Is it their only piercing?
For anyone reading, [do not do this.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uvula_piercing)
…..if someone doesn’t date someone based on this, it just isn’t meant to be. Sure if it is like genital piercing, it may be a big turn off for some that is really hidden away, but wouldn’t this be noticed at some point if things get serious and when you talk?
Personally, I am not a fan of weird piercings. However, to each his/her own preferences.
