How does /ic/ balance studying with Relationships?

Avoid relationships like everyone else. What, you aren't serious about your art?

If you unironically "study" for 12 hours and this isn't your job or anything, you are doing things very, very wrong. All professional artists have families, interests, they travel, have time for leisure etc.

They aren't shut-ins that emerge from their cave just to show the world new painting.

>being alone and drawing is just too painful

there is nothing that feels better to me.

By being in my apartment and only leaving the house for groceries or walks in the park. I dont have time for people.

100% study, 0% relationships

I share no interests with those around me so is not that hard

Depends
Is this a real relationship? or one of those cringey, nonsensical "long distance relationships" with some chick on another continent who you brag about being in love with but have never seen IRL and will never see for another 5 years because you can't afford a plane ticket?

get >>>/out/ you disgusting normalfag scum, don't you have asspats to collect from your granny on facebook

Been living with my girlfriend for 4 years now. Will probably marry her.

My work station is situated right behind our main couch/living area of our 1BR apartment. If I tell her I want to work at night (she works during the day), she'll watch Netflix or something and I'll draw, while still being able to talk to each other.

It's absolutely great. I couldn't imagine being in a relationship where it's not okay to take some time to yourself if you need it.

I dedicate the 8 hours my husband is at work for studying.

I had to give up on the 12 hour schedule. Unless you're with someone who just never wants attention, you're gonna get interrupted and then you're gonna get frustrated.

Weekends are pretty much a bust too. Usually only work an hour or two each day.

>being alone and drawing is just too painful for now
wait, what?

1) being in a relationship because you don't want to be alone is not a good basis for a long term thing
2) when you feel that you can't balance your hobbies with your relationship, you need to talk to your partner
3) good relationships have compromise

When I was single (6 fucking years ago) all my freetime was for hanging out with friends, shitposting, and drawing. How is it painful to be alone and draw, it's freedom. Take advantage- break off your "relationship", go on a bender, cry it all out and then start drawing. And avoid /r9k/ ffs.

my only relationship is my family, besides that there is one friend that wants me to go to a pub once in a moth, i think it's okay to go once in a month

idk, sounds like you were using your gf as a crutch/escape tbqh. your lifes balance was a house of cards waiting to fall.

Your drawing should have been entirely for yourself

>>2702559
get off /ic/, you need professional help

being in a relationship isn't an all-or-nothing situation unless you're business partners.
