On most parts of your body that you are likely to get your first tattoo, the feeling is really very bearable, and is akin to a slightly burning scratch. You get used to it quickly after the initial discomfort.
Unless you are getting it on your ribs, elbows, knees or other choice spots, I think you'll be fine.
As 80stoyman said, make sure you want it before you jump in. If you're not sure, wait a couple of weeks/months/years, and if you still like the idea then go for it
