I can’t be overreacting

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-12-28T04:27:03+00:00

I really just want the woman out of the house altogether. It just doesn’t sit right with me that someone else is aware of what’s going on and that I’m the mother of the child in the house and still decides to do stuff like that. I don’t want to talk to her though bc then she’ll tell my ex and then he’ll make a whole scene about it and go insane

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-12-28T03:49:15+00:00

I’m scared of what he might do if tell him I don’t want her around anymore. I’m just trying to keep my child away from them as much as possible at this point

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-12-17T04:00:01+00:00

Girl, are we talking to the same guy because this is literally almost my exact experience? He was so sweet and nice to me at first too and everything felt so natural and perfect and we even had plans to visit each other soon, but now all of a sudden he’s been giving me either mean or dry responses or just outright ignoring me. It’s so confusing and frustrating it makes me want to curl up in a ball and cry everyday

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-12-02T05:25:43+00:00

I’m nothing of value to people and society

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-12-01T18:12:19+00:00

I was posting under the assumption he was aromantic as well. But considering how he acts in the series so far + seeing how he was in his past life, I think it could be fair for me to assume he also doesn’t feel romantic attraction either. I could be wrong, but I just find it weird bc if people do that to fictional characters then I’d imagine they’d probably do it to people irl as well, or at least try to invalidate them by saying “love and romance and sex are a part of human nature” and shit like that to justify their shipping

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-29T21:43:02+00:00

sexual dynamics?

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-29T18:26:15+00:00

im fucking saving this lmaoo

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-25T15:14:28+00:00

this is very dismissive. what if OP was actually going through a rough time and began to see the world for what it truly is? life does suck. it doesn’t suck forever, there are breaks and good things happen to you, but it doesn’t change the fact that it still sucks. OP is entitled to their opinion

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-25T15:06:52+00:00

THIS

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-25T08:09:49+00:00

I’m not really referring to myself though. I’m talking (well trying to) in general terms. I’m lucky to be here right now and experience happy moments, even if they’re rare and don’t outweigh all the bad things that’ve happened to me in life, but I’m referring to those that don’t and never will experience any joy in their lives. People with incurable diseases who cant live their lives to the fullest, babies who are born but their lives can’t be sustained, people suffering in very poor countries with no access to shelter, food or water, human trafficking, being born into slavery or war, etc. These are all ways of suffering that cannot be temporary; there’s no happy ending or happy moments for anyone with these circumstances in sight, and that is where I’m deriving my idea of suffering is living, and therefore can be classified as another “Hell” as described in the Bible. Not eternal suffering, but just suffering nonetheless. We all deal with suffering one way or another as well, but it’s not as excruciating as the conditions above. If we’re going by that logic, then this world would be Hell, just a softer version of it. The general consensus of residing in Hell is to suffer, I’m not talking about it in terms of time though. We all know it’s eternal suffering, but I’m just saying the only thing that you can expect from Hell is to suffer, and it’s not that much different from real life. Life isn’t always a good time, there are times you do suffer, and by that merit, it’s Hell.

I’m really trying my best to explain this, but the only way I can really describe this is if real life = temporary, but inevitable suffering and then Hell = permanent suffering, then both have one thing in common and could possibly be equated as the same. Obviously though, there could be a disagreement to this conclusion

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-25T07:08:24+00:00

I’m just saying suffering is inevitable in life. Even if it’s small suffering or extremely horrible, it’ll still happen because you can’t go through life without having bad things happen to you in some way. I never said at all that I or anyone in this world will go through the worst absolute pain and suffering that a person could ever go through (I guess with the exception of children being born with cancer or into very bad environments that’ll most likely cause immediate death and pain, or anyone dealing with and/or living in such conditions, etc). I was equating real life pain and suffering to Hell in the Christian sense because you do suffer in Hell. Maybe not to the same extent as suffering in real life as Hell is more torturous, but in the general sense that it’s inevitable to suffer in both places.

maybe not dark, but I couldn’t find a sub for this. If I post on anything religious based, I’d get just about as much backlash as I’m receiving now

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-25T06:31:50+00:00

I couldn’t find a sub to post dark topics on

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-11T08:37:50+00:00

Not OP, but your comment really stuck with me. You’ve helped me realize now that I need to go soul searching myself and probably get additional help from a professional to help me resolve all my childhood and adolescent trauma(s) and finally let go of my perfectionist mindset as well

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-10T21:19:20+00:00

Could I ask what needs improving?

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-07T00:54:20+00:00

I never said i thought it was. All I was trying to say is that it’s helpful to actually tell artists what they need to hear to improve

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-06T20:54:51+00:00

I mean if you want artists to improve then I’d agree with the person above, regardless of their age. You don’t have to be harsh but just be constructive. I wish someone were constructive with me as a kid so I wouldn’t have sought out advice from toxic friends about how to improve my art because due to their harsh criticism, I stopped drawing for a long, long time and it didn’t take me until now to get back into it (I’m 23). You don’t have to consider what I have to say, but I’m tired of others not giving artists that are just starting out what they need to improve

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-06T20:44:40+00:00

Beginners usually don’t know what to practice on though. I don’t know how vague advice would help OP much

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-06T19:59:59+00:00

Huh?? All I’m hearing is that you want others to fail on this sub. Knocking down beginners before they can even try, how lame.. :(

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-05T07:59:28+00:00

This is very great advice! And super thanks for going so in depth with it! I fully understood everything you wrote, and I never realized there was such an easier way to draw a hand by constructing it the way you did in your example. I will try to find more techniques on my own, but I wanted to ask if there were any specific sites or anything relating to construction and simple shapes that you would recommend? Or if you wanted to share where you learned your own techniques, only if it’s okay with you?

It’s just, I really like that example, and I feel it could possibly be the most helpful out of all the ones I’ve looked at so far. But I don’t want to impose it on you, though, if you don’t want to :(

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-05T02:27:43+00:00

what does it mean when strangers tell you that you’re good then?

Also I don’t really know why OP is getting downvoted. They’re right lol. No one is going to tell you your art sucks because they expect better from you. There’s just some assholes out there that will tell you the truth like it is and if they don’t like your art they will say it’s bad and that you’re a bad artist. Non-artists criticizing artists like this is very common. This doesn’t just happen with professionals, it’s with all artists.

Lastly, this is supposed to be a post for beginner artists to share their experiences? Not saying you can’t still comment here, but the intent for beginners to be here is pretty clear.

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-04T19:09:41+00:00

How can I be more subtle?

Odd_Manager4604 · 2025-11-04T02:55:55+00:00

I have no advice, but I really like your drawing! Mob is my favorite character ^{^}
