@freakshop2,
I don't want to be your whole life, just your favourite part
Non vitam tuam totam sed partem tuam praelatam esse volo

Non --> not
vitam --> life
tuam --> your
totam--> whole
sed --> but
partem --> part
tuam --> your
praelatam --> favorite, preferred
esse --> to be
volo --> I want

If I can't be your whole life, I want to be you're favourite part
Si vitam tuam totam esse non possum, partem tuam praelatum esse volo

Si --> if
possum --> I can

I'm thinking of getting these phrases tattooed but in Latin of course:
-"story of my life"

-"the voice of reason" or "my brother is my of reason" or "[name] is my voice of reason"

- "no expectations, no disappointments" or "less expectations, less disappointments"

- "Am I in your headspace?"

-"What the ****?"
"I don't give a ****."
"I don't care."

Any help would be good! Thanks (:
George

@IB6UB9,
"the voice of reason"
vox rationis

"my brother is my of reason"
frater meus vox mea rationis est

[name] is my voice of reason"
[nomen] vox mea rationis est

"no expectations, no disappointments"
nullae exspectationes, nullae frustrationes

"less expectations, less disappointments"
pauciores exspectationes, pauciores frustrationes

"Am I in your headspace?"
I don't have a clue

@George,
George, did you see the thread in which a new member is asking for a translation from Latin into English?

@helenguzzi,
This uses laborat instead of palpitat for "beats".

The definition of laborare:
1 - To labor, take pains, exert one's self, strive
2 - To suffer, to labor under, to be oppressed, afflicted, or troubled with

I don't think I would use it in this context.

Hello Mr. George,
How are you? It's been a while since the last time you helped translate my quote. I now try to work hard to live, and to forget sad things. Can you help me to translate this to Latin:
Workaholic / worklover
Thank you. Wish you the best.
