I'm a drawfag and I'd like to make a webcomic, but I've never posted my stuff offline because the internet backlash, sites such as bad webcomics intimidate the absolute fuck out of me, even though friends tell me my art isn't that bad, I've been practicing every day and night my art and I've been checking out said wiki to know what to NOT do. But I wasn't always like this.

A few years ago, I made a grindhouse-style poster, it was a week of work for a certain fan-organized cyber-event and I was incredibly proud of it. I showed my work to a former artist friend (a girl whose skills are really high-rank) my work, she accused me of cheating/tracing to do it because "it was too good to be my work" and added that I only "like to draw", I'm "not serious about it". It wrecked my confidence I stopped drawing for about 2 years and lost my ability to show my work to people. After another friend showed me "Drawing the marvel way" video and gave me a digital copy of the book I began drawing once more, and my skill improved but... How can I get over this crippling fear to criticism?

Why would "too good to be your work" wreck your confidence?

It's like playing a video game and doing some sick plays and some kid calls you out for being a "hacker". It's high compliment that your standard is so far beyond their expected reality that you must've cheated to get there.

A simple reframe does the trick nicely.

Because "too good to be (my) work" was followed by accusations of cheating my way/tracing, and not taking art seriously, just drawing as a distraction.

In was really, really proud of that poster, I really thought I'd get a compliment for my effort from her, not accusations of trace.
>>
>>17330356

do it anyways. anyone who posts their stuff thinking that they arent going to get criticized is out of their mind with delusion.

in 2007 i decided to create a fanime. and i got shit on by every other fanime in that community. for years they insulted my work, talked about how they were the best fucking shit in the world. i struggled with 600 views per episoe at the age of 14 trying to learn how the fuck computers work and being insulted by much older people.

flash forward to now, literally all of those fanime have given up after 1 and a half episodes of mediocre work, mine is the only one in the community to air its complete story, i got over a million views across the episodes and still get 60 thousand views a month (over 100 thousand until some were blocked in america over musical rights). Were loved and adored by thousands, some people consider our fanime cannon, we get fanart, and fan videos and fan fiction and someones even designing an action figure from our OC.

and you know what? people still come along and say 'HURR DURR THIS IS SHIT BECAUSE I SAY SO'.

its something you deal with and keep doing cuz you love what you do.

so just do it OP. put it out there, and learn what criticism is good and bad.

Been telling the wife to stop gaining weight and to lose some. She is 120lbs at 5 feet.

Problem is that whenever she see's a friend they all tell her "omg you have lost so much weight, you need to stop dieting otherwise you are gonna have health problems"

She comes home all smug about how much weight she lost and how I am such a shitty person for not seeing results of her hard work when everyone else see's it.

It always leads to a fight when I ask her to show me the lost weight and scales show 120lbs. She then goes okay I am fat, you are right then refusing to speak for a couple of days.

What the fuck is wrong with all these fucking female friends she has? How do I deal with this every month without having a fight?

120 lbs and 5 feet is healthy. It's a BMI of 23.
If you want her to get more toned, exercise with her. But she doesn't need to lose weight.
>>
>>17330331
>with all these fucking female friends she has?

They can't let her get thinner, so that they don't look fat in comparison. I know the type who do this. They're innocently vicious with the whole "Wow, you're so skinny" bullshit, when everyone within normal weight-range looks skinny to them, because they're simply fat.

You probably can't deal with it every month. You could try to initiate healthier lifestyle and help her. Start exercising together, cook together healthier meals, etc. Criticism doesn't work as well as actually helping her and then complementing her when some results actually do turn up.

Before I started dating my girlfriend I found out that her ex had a 22 cm penis after a drunken party conversation led to penis size. Mines only 17.8 cm and I feel incredibly self conscious about it. I know I'm fucking retarded and it makes no sense but I feel like I can't pleasure her sexually as well as her ex did. I give her multiple orgasms when we have sex, and she says sex is amazing but I still can't help this stupid feeling of inadequacy.

Big cocks are overrated. Sure, nice to look at, but fucking with a big cock is painful and it limits your options a lot. My ex was a lot bigger than my boyfriend and sex sucked, it constantly hurt.
You dick is well over average and if you can satisfy her, who cares.
>>
So, he had a bigger dick. Bigger dicks are better. Are you going to let that bother you? Are you going to be the insecure one too? The one who whines about his dick size? Or are you going to man up and deal what you got? You can learn to lick pussy to make sure you satisfy her, lick that fucking daily and you are guaranteed better in her eyes than the ex ever was.

I should probably break up with my boyfriend but I can't seem to do it because I am still fully in love with him.

He has a selfish, aggressive side that comes out every once and while. He's aware of it and he feels guilty when he acts out but it still keeps coming out and doesn't look like its getting better.

But sometimes I wonder, what if I throw this relationship away before it does finally get better? Then I would miss out. I guess I feel like he puts in the effort to change, but its just not enough, or maybe I'm just not patient enough?

What does /adv/ think of situations like this?

Its our anniversary next month...

>>
>>17330287
Do not settle. If the problems can't be talked through and worked out, then jump into the lifeboat and don't look back. A relationship shouldn't be a prison, regardless of how you feel. If you stay, you might end up never leaving because you'll keep saying "but what if it changes?" and it'll never change.

Get out sweetie, while you still can.

>what if I throw this relationship away before it does finally get better?

Do you have any idea why he's that way? Is it because he considers himself a failure? You can only help him so far.

Make your coffee. Your mom's fault for getting drunk on the couch instead of her own bed.

I say this as someone who loves their mother more than anyone. But she's still human and time can't stop for her.

Unless you're paying rent, go buy a coffee.

Also, either go to bed earlier learn to function without coffee.

I promised my SO that I would try meds in order to help stabilize our relationship. I just called to make the appointment after 2 days of worrying about what I'd say over the phone. I left a voicemail. I am terrified of the numbness that might happen when I start the pills. I'm scared that I will stop feeling anything at all. But that also might be a relief - to stop being scared and depressed all the time. I know that I will off myself soon if these don't work out. I know that if they do, I will stop loving.

Whatever it is that you need the meds for, it is almost always the case that there are 2 or 3 different meds for every condition. Your doctor will prescribe the one most likely to help, but if it has bad side effects, you can ask him to switch you to another.

So for the last 3 weeks my bf of a year and a half has been acting really different. Before he was playing games with me, trying to find things for us to do together, inviting me to places with his senpai but now he doesnt do any of that. He doesn't even really talk to me anymore.

At the beginning of June he invited me to Austin with his family and we're leaving in two weeks, but I don't think he wants me to go with him anymore. I really want to ask him if he's cheating on me or talking to other girls but the last time I did that he got VERY offended and I don't want to jeopardize our relationship or risk him telling me he doesn't want me to go just because of that.

How do I ask him if he's cheating or entertaining other girls without pissing him off?

I'm thinking of just asking "why have you been so distant" but it's so vague..

Lmao inviting me to places with his family**

How did I type in senpai? Weird
>>
>>17330178
Well, did you found a games to play with him, did you try to do things together with him, did you invite him with you to places with your senpai? do you start conversations and provide interesting topics other than gossiping and state of your relationship? Maybe he is bored with you, maybe he is goind through some heavy stuff he don't want to tell you.

Asking "what's the matter, can I help you in anything" in least bitchy way, would be a start. You could read much from his reactions. If he seems distressed when you tell him "I will always be there for you. I will always help you, I love you very much" it might be sign there is something fishy going on.

Maybe he is unsure about his own feelings, maybe he is not geting as much from relationship as you are geting. Maybe he has his own issues.
>>
>>17330241
Yeah 3+ weeks ago he was crying and telling me how much I meant to him

After that he just distanced himself and now I just think he was playing with my emotions.

Hello /adv/
My sister has MS (multiple sclerosis).
She's a stuck up cunt, even though everyone helps her as much as possible, and she refuses to drink anything other than coffee.
She drinks 2 glasses of coffee, and one cup of water daily.
Is it advisable to drink that much coffee daily, and in such a ratio with water? How long until she fucks something up with that type of diet?

Thanks in advance.

i don't trust my boyfriend fully...

idk what to do. I worry a lot about what my bf is doing, wonder if he texts girls, flirts with girls when hes out, etc. this is mainly bc hes confessed to lying to me, in the beginning of our relationship a year ago- he said he lied about hanging out with his friends girlfirends friends (didn't tell me about it), and deleted texts from girls in his phone bc he didn't want me to take it the wrong way. he had screenshots of his best friends ex girlfriend pics that she snapped him (a selfie with a silly face that said 'me when I saw u)... he went to her work and saw her (this was a year ago..), had a crush on his ex's twin sister and was best friends with her for our whole relationship until like three months ago... they snapped and texted and hes called her late at night at 11pm before. just stupid shit.

this is all pretty much old stuff and he hasn't done anything shady that I know about for a long time, but I guess I just don't completely trust him... and I just realize this now bc I always wonder what hes doing, if he doesn't answer I wonder what hes doing, etc etc etc and its starting to bother me bc I don't wanna be a detective. his best friend has a new gf and he and her flirt and its shady and he just followed her on insta and shit and I just don't like it and yeah, like I don't trust him. and were supposed to go on an expensive vacation in two weeks and I don't wanna post pics of us together... like idk what to do..should I break up with him? how? I know if I did he would blame it on me and say its my fault I didn't trust him and act like he can do better but hes the reason why I don't trust him, and I don't wanna seem like its my fault..

what should I do=/ if I break up with him, how? should I do it before our vacation?

Do it after the vacation, but make him pay for everything

Just do what my shitty fucking bf is doing to me at, ignore him and get more and more distant and deliberately make it obvious that you're talking to other guys

If he's lying to you about talking to girls n shit you shouldn't trust him
>>
>>17330191
yeah. I don't trust him. but he blames it on me, making me seem like a bad person "well its bc YOU don't trust me!"

hwo does ur bf make it obvious hes talking to girls o_0
-I mean he "sleeps" ALL THE TIME. like that at this point I don't really believe him that HE ALWAYS SLEEPING... he disappears for THE WHOLE DAY sometimes I wont hear from him till 9pm. I finally got on his ass about it and all the sudden hes awake in the morning, but usually doing stuff with friends.. so I cant help believe that he always is awake and just hides it from me to ignore me. and its pretty obvious he likes the girl his best friend is fucking, its really disgusting, and he just followed her on Instagram and liked a pic of her his friend posted and then like her insta pics (not selfies, but still). and shes immature, 5 years younger than me, desperate. he also had some random girl recently add him on snapchat, and he says he doesn't know who it is but I find that weird, ive never been added on snapchat by a random person.. and I haven't been able to see his phone for 2+ weeks like he hasn't kept it alone around me and stuff...
>>
>>17330191


alsooo lol I so would do that but I would feel kinda bad if we went on vaca and I made him pay for it then dump him.. like I'm not a shitty person, but I'm not ready to break up with him yet...but I also don't wanna take pics of us on vacatin bc idk if I see a future with him anymore.... and I don't want that stuff on my social media

-honestly, I should have broke up with him when he confessed to lying to me about all that stuff a year ago. idk what I did

I've been with my gf for almost 3 years now. First serious and long relationship I've had. We lost our virginity together. At first we had a very mutually strong bond and were very happy. But as time went on I slowly found myself losing this feeling. We still talk and hang out all the time. The constant contact doesn't help things for me usually. But she gets very clingy and will guilt me when I'm not around for too long.

Sometimes we genuinely do have fun hanging out but that's just doing things that are non romantic. I don't feel any spark or fuzzies when we kiss or hug really.

I've felt this way for a while but I don't have the balls to break it off. This is the closest I've gotten now. I just feel bad that I know I'll fuck her life up by leaving...

She went to a university just to be closer to me so we could see each other more (we were long distance at first)
And she always tells me how I'm her only friend practically.
I know she'll be devastated and my family likes her a lot and hers likes me a lot too.

Sorry for the drawn out story but, is it time to end things? What are your thoughts?

I have before and for a time that worked but I still don't feel too much.
She has even said she feels like she misses me more than I her and it's true sadly
>>
The same thing happened to me, except that i'm male and i was the one who got dumped.

It's almost exactly the same thing, we began long distance, eventually got closer, i loved her very much but she didn't feel the same for me and eventually ended it all.

It was extremely painful, i was depressed for months, it hurts A LOT, but, in the end i realized one thing, the longer a dead relationship gets dragged on, worse the break-up is and more it's gonna hurt for one or both parties.

If it's not working out, end it, life is too short for wasting time with a lie. It's gonna be very painful but it's better done now than later, because it can only get worse. Cut all contact after it, even sporadic phone calls or texts will nurture false hopes that will only make the pain last longer.

If she really loves and cares about you, it's gonna hurt way too much, i know that pain, so be considerate, don't step all over her, be honest, tell her you are very sorry but the feelings aren't there for you, she is going to cry, she is going to say she hates you, she is going to be depressed for a while, but time will heal the wound, and it's gonna shape her into a more mature, wiser person, like it did to me.

Be considerate, honest and don't lead her on any longer, she is going to remembe you with a smile in the future.

I can't find any women I'm actually even remotely interested in. It's not so much about attractiveness (though I do have kinda high standards), but mainly that when I talk to the majority of girls all they can talk about is their jobs and stories of their basic ass friends. It's just so boring. I want to find a girl I can talk to about philosophy and science and life, not work and partying. But I simply cannot find any, whether I'm at uni or on tinder, or in a club or a café... Do you guys have any tips on where I can meet these kinds of women? I just feel so fucked when I see all my friends pairing off with each other and isolating themselves in their little love nests, and it's starting to do my head in. But I just can't bring myself to get with these boring ass basic hoes that seem to make up the vast majority of society.
