Whatever you get, think about it for awhile. I knew 11 years ago that I wanted to get a tattoo, and that I wanted it to have handcuffs, a heart, and a rose. At the time, I was going to get an anklet with those linked to each other. I have since modified the design to be a grouping on my lower back, and have added the Virgo symbol to it as well. I had it done last November, and love it.
However, because it has the fetish piece on it (handcuffs are about as tame as I would go in a tattoo... I could also explain it away as "I wanted to be a cop"), I was advised to think about it, and see if I still liked the lifestyle later on. I figured 11 years was long enough, I'm still in it, so I had it done.
I'm glad I waited, because if I had gotten tired of that lifestyle, I wouldn't be happy now. I was into saying "Groovy" back then, but if I had had that tattooed on me, again, I wouldn't be happy now.
Longer story short, people change. Give it some time to make sure you like the idea.
