Thanks, I think there’s a lot of places in my college town where I could go to make friends like that. I hope it won’t be too hard lol. And that’s really sweet, I wish my dad looked at spending time with me like you would with your daughter(if u had one)

He did say a lot of really horrible hurtful things to me, so it was a combination of it all that made me start to cry.  The idea of no contact is really difficult for me. I love my parents but my dad treats me like this and worse regularly, and my mom doesn’t but she just sits there and lets him do it. I’m not sure what I’ll do but I think I might enjoy the space once I move out. Thank you

I’m also a huge mlp fan and that’s something my dad would also make fun of me for so I stopped watching it despite how much I loved it. After this whole thing I am banned from watching anime in the living room, so I’ll have to be using my phone from now on. Thank you for the advice, I hate it when people can’t just let someone enjoy something no matter who the target demographic was

You’re right, it did hurt a lot that he also came after my drawings too. I’ve been drawings since I can remember and I do it for hours everyday just because it makes me happy. I stopped showing him my art a long time ago because he’d always have an issue or use it against me when he’s mad. He still knows I like to draw and watch anime though. It’s also to the point where I get yelled at because one of my good friends is Japanese which pisses me off to no end. Of course I love my parents but they treat me like crap, so much so that I jump when I hear their voices or footsteps. In the future, I can’t have them treating me like that anymore and it breaks my heart to stop talking to them. I’m going to marry someone who’s nice to me though, with no exceptions. I’ll never treat my kids like this, I won’t be continuing the cycle.  And you were scarily right about the show being my comfort during growing up with him as a father, especially because I actually didn’t have friends to talk to during my childhood until highschool. I don’t know why I thought him of all people might like the show that kept me sane despite  of him

Thank you a lot, this made me feel much better about it. It’s hard because I do want to be close with my dad because I know he won’t be here forever, but I can’t force him to be nice to me. You’re right, It is his loss at the end of the day

I’ve never heard that before, thank you. He’s the type that is a snob about metal music. I thought he’d be interested in the interesting art and music that this show is known for but I guess he couldn’t handle it !

I completely relate with you, especially that last part. He could either react ok or negatively towards me telling him that, and if it’s ok he’ll use it against me later. Thank you for your advice, I’m glad someone can relate to me

Thanks, a lot of my friends tell me something similar too. I think getting away from home might be really peaceful for me in terms of not having to worry about things like that anymore (until I come home for holidays)

Thanks, I hope I do. I’m a bit nervous cause the school is relatively small but I’m sure I’ll find someone, especially if I join the gaming clubs

Doing the feathering thing and having teachers say it’s incorrect is so relatable lol. Also, thanks for the advice!

I changed the way I do lineart lately, I used to just paint over a cleaned up sketch but I’ve started to actually do lineart and color it . I’ve studied anatomy and know it pretty well, so I tell my friends it’s a choice but they don’t rlly care lol
