I've been having problems with my jealously towards another artists.
I've been practicing for 9 years but I never have courage to show my drawings to the public. Lately, I met a person who's also an artist which has been into this for 7 years (almost) and she's way better than I am, so when I see her drawings I start to feel sick and cry uncontrollably until I'm really far from this person.
What can I do about this reaction? What should I do to stop crying on times like this?

Don't compare your art to that of others', only compare it to your old art. See how you've improved. Redraw old art to prove to yourself that you're continuously getting better. Focus on yourself only, but do take inspiration from the techniques of other people to help be where you want to be.
>>
Had same problem when I was younger.

Mature, realize that you're not and never will be the best artist and that there are 9 year olds who are better than you. Accept that fact and focus on getting better.

Just like you'll never be the prettiest, smartest or richest person in the world. There's always someone better so stop acting so entitled.
>>
>>16861119
The problem is that I discarded all of my old drawings, and from all my experience, I didn't improve that much, I can't even drawn scenarios with perspective or finish with ink. For a person like me drawing for 9 years it's a humiliation to see someone younger doing better than me.

I posted in /v/ a couple days ago offering to gift people stuff from World of Warcraft - game time, expansions, etc. I put no limit on how many people could respond except that they had to come from NA servers since I can't gift to EU. I even paid several people via PayPal if they preferred.

Being naive, I posted my email with it and mentioned that I make enough money that I done mind paying for people. But then I ended up spending a couple hundred dollars in less than an hour. I apologized and said that I was done and people got upset because I said I would buy for everyone.

Regardless of what you think of other 4chan users and whether you think the offer was wise to make in the first place, so you think backing out was ethically fine to do? Or should I have stuck to it and learn my lesson by letting /v/ drain my bank and credit card because I advertised it without limit and said I'd pay for anyone and everyone?

Sorry, typo. "do you think backing out..."
>>
>>16861093
Fuck yes. You're doing them a favour. You owe them nothing. You're not offering a legal service that binds you by contract. You offered to gift people stuff, and it's up to you when to call it quits. Judging by 'a couple hundred dollars in less than an hour', you've already gifted more than enough.
They're just bitter they missed out on a freebie, and feel they're entitled to it. They're not. Because they're all anonymous, they can get away with acting like spoiled brats, and there's nothing you can do about that.

My advice to you is enjoy the kindness you have given people, but understand your limits and ignore those who don't. There's a difference between being kind and being exploited.
>>
>>16861207
Cool, thanks! I think I felt obligated because I expected some response and to stay organized and fair, I stated it in a business-like, rulesy fashion. It almost sounded contractual at times but it's a 4chan post, not a contract. Maybe you're right!

what the fuck man I'm asking because I don't want to be a NEET I want to contribute in life have a family fuck off.

Yesterday I had sex for the first time in a year. My previous time was with my girlfriend, when we were still dating. Yesterday it was with a girl I was sort of flirting with.

I didn't enjoy it much.

Now I consider myself a very sexual person. I love sex. I love the smell of it. I love how it feels, how it makes you feel. And now I feel really embarrased because I didn't enjoy it. I didn't had any trouble finishing it, I think the girl had fun. That's cool. I just didn't enjoy it, and that makes me feel weird.

To be honest, I didn't like much the girl. She's cute, she has a cute body, I just didn't felt much attracted to her. Like, literally after having sex she lied on the bed and she sort of asked me to lie next to her but I didn't, I just sit next to her, and kissed her legs but I just didn't wanted to lie next to her, I don't know. I was just thinking about leaving.

I usually get driven by sex so much. Maybe not by sex itself, but by the passion a person can drawn on me. I felt that with my last girlfriend. It was liberating. But this time, not much...

I had one night stands before, and there's usually a lot of frenetic attraction on it, this was more colder


Is this normal? I'm just feeling weird like it was my fault that I didn't enjoy it

at least you know that you can enjoy it...

I was disappointed the last and only 3 times I've had sex. To be fair, I didn't really like the girls. But I still didn't have any fun
>>
>>16861123
Maybe it's because I wasn't into it?

All my sexual life has been full of very passionate encounters, and this is the first time sex leaves me a cold feeling... It makes me feel like I have some sort of sexual dysfunction or something, I feel ashamed and as if it were my fault, I don't know why I feel like this

Wtf is with german girls? My town has a lot of german tourists. They look all right, you start talking and you can have a good conversation. As soon as it comes to, lets meet again or even do something now, I get 'no.' What is it? Why so stuck up?

>asks girls out

>ermagerd Deutsche frauen are so stuck up

Nothing is with german girls, maybe it's with you? I've lived in many plances all over the world except for South America, and I've mostly gotten "yes", with a few "no"s every now and then.

You sound buttmad, maybe you shouldn't take it so personally? Anon I'm sure you aren't that bad of a person, because I'm sure as hell while Germans are arrogant (rightly so for many reasons, wrongly so for just as many reasons; just like any other nationality), it would be childish to assume that girls are stuck up for turning you down.

>TL;DR Deutsche Frauen don't owe you anything, and you don't owe German girls anything, either
>stop being buttmad
>>
Have you googled German culture tips or courtship etiquette? You might be shooting yourself in the foot by being too flirtatious or giving empty icebreaker compliments.

Or maybe they don't want to get an American STD. Whatever.
>>
>>16861064
Because you can't meet up with them again because they have to go back... to Germany???

Presuming you live in Europe and they have to take a several hour long train ride to go to wherever you live and back.

I have been taking depression medication for over a year but it is not working for me.

I recently saw a psychiatrist and had a nice, long conversation with him. He told me that he doesn't think I'm "depressed" and he doesn't think any kind of medication would help me, it's just how my personality is. He said he could probably fit me into a "personality disorder" but he didn't think doing that would be too helpful, and that I should just work on improving the things that I don't like in my life with a counselor.

The problem is that every counselor I've been to just feeds me stupid generic normie advice like "be yourself" and "excercise more". It's like there's a complete disconnect between me and them and they don't understand my day to day life or why I don't want to do certain things.

Am I just fucked for life?

I regret almost everything in my entire life. The choices I've made, the type of person I chose to be, what a huge asshole I was, the people I screwed over for the sake of screwing over. Basically I hated who I used to be, but now I am a better person and it's hard to push the past where it belongs because it haunts me and creeps up on me every day.

/adv/, how do you stop feeling regret? How do you get over it all? Also, how do you prove that you've changed to your friends and family?

Don't be afraid of failure man. U need to be happy with who u are now. Life isn't all regular assholes crack it up to be. If they don't accept u u just have to move on. Don't let it destroy u. U seem like a good lad and I wish u the best man. Hope this helps.

I don't regret anything. Thermodynamically there is no way you could have been anything but what you were, and where you are now is the end result of what you've been.

In other words, you are a better person because you were a bad person. There's nothing to regret.

How come there are all these girls who can date guys all the time and they choose to date or not date depending on how they feel, but I can't even get one date with a guy?

What is it that they're doing apart from being prettier than me?

I am getting a crush on someone and I would very much like if I could slow the process for at least a couple of weeks.

I don't want to avoid this person or to remove him from my life I just wanna pipe the fuck down.

He is basically a 9/10 for me and I think things are going into a good direction but I would like to stop thinking about it/him so often. Any advice on this?

Unfortunately we can't control our emotions so I'm afraid there's not much you can do. Trying to repress it doesn't work. But you can change the circumstances. Maybe limit the amount of time you see them?

Also why do you want to slow the process down for a couple of weeks?
>>
>>16861031
Don't force your feelings.
It's a rule that if you try to suppress an emotion, you'll only see it return with more power. Likewise, seeking an emotion will yield the opposite.

The best you can do if you're feeling things you don't want is try to change your circumstances so you can avoid the source of this feelings. In this case, spend less time around him, keep yourself busy, etc. If you have to be honest with him about how you feel, be honest.

In time you'll get the right emotions again.

So this year was pretty fucked up /adv/,my dog died(I know it sounds stupid to someone who doesn't have a dog,but trust me it hurts),my girl abandoned because she said she got bored of being in a relationship,my sister's going through surgery and also I have final exams to deal with. I'm trying to all these things in order,here's how I've put them:
1) Sister's health
2) Finals
3)Grief
4) The pain that she gave to me.

Any advice on what I should do? Should I hang out with friends or give it some time? Help /adv/...

Not only is surgery not usually that big of a deal (imo, med fag here.) unless it is something really fucked, but you worrying about your sister is something that is completely useless. It doesn't matter how much you worry, you can't change what may or may not happen.

Focus on the things that you can change as your first priority, your finals. Then, focus on things you can change a little, such as getting a new pet, or find new female companionship.

There's a girl I met. We've hit it off. She likes me; she likes me a lot. However, I cannot figure out why. Everything's great, but there's this niggling feeling in the back of my mind, I keep thinking "Why does she like me so much?" She's much more interesting + better looking than I am. How do I stop this inferiority complex? I know that it'll ruin the relationship long-term if I continue w/ this thinking. I haven't told her about how I feel inferior, of course, but maybe she can sense it.

I keep thinking she deserves someone better. I feel like an imposter or something. Will this go away in time or do I simply have to man up and stop being a faggot? I've been trying to work on my self-esteem for a long time and I'd hate it to ruin a potentially great relationship.

I feel like there's a clash between my self-perception and how she sees me, I'm having difficulty accepting it.

tldr - met a girl, she's gr8, she likes me, idk why, feel like an imposter, worried it might effect relationship, need advice on stopping inferiority complex and accepting that she likes me for who i am.

You've got a great girl, you like her, she likes you. That's awesome. Even if you don't think you deserve her, she sees something in you that she doesn't see in others. So find out subtly what she likes about you. That should help. If it doesn't, just go with the flow, and when you two have become good friends (because a relationship must be between not just lovers but good friends as well), tell her about this and she should help you.

>she chose you
>She's better than you, and she chose you
>that makes you better than all the guys who you think are better than you
>and she didn't chose THEM
>SHE CHOSE YOU

Using your own laid out premises, I hopefully demonstrated to you logically that you should feel slightly better about yourself. But hey, humility is a good thing; you're just overdoing it. A lot.

Anons, why do I get scared when someone asks me out? Not only when the guy asking me out is a stranger, but also when they are part of my social circle. It's even worse when I know them.... I don't know what to do, I don't want to give them hopes, but also I don't want to hurt their feelings, and I'm get too weird to give it a try.... I hope I'm not the only one who gets nervous and awkward when someone shows interested in them.... sry if my English is not the best.
Also 20 yr old virgin femanon.... I wish I was trolling

all your problems would be solved by saying "Yes", "Sure" or "of course", then the guy would have to take care of everything afterwards. You have to do nothing else.

Be honest OP, have you "thrown fits" about her schedule before? 'Cos this doesn't sound like a first-time deal.

If you want to try apologising sincerely and in depth, Snapchat isn't really the best medium to do it with. Text her if you want, but don't be surprised if she ignores that too. You might have fucked up too hard to fix, in which case all you can do is learn your lesson and move on.
