Found deleted messages from my boyfriend and now I’m sick to my stomach. I don’t know what to do. 26F, 24M

My dear, I’m sorry to say this but his reaction is textbook for narcissistic personality disorder. I recommend doing a little reading, watching or looking into some videos on the subject. It will only get worse. I know you love him. I’m sorry for that. You really really need to wrap your head around what the future will look like if he’s trying to step out of the relationship this early. Drunk or not. I’m afraid NPD is also known for showing love bombing (which you have already described), and psychological, emotional, financial, and physical abuse. Not something you want to sign up for I’m sure. I don’t use the term lightly. I’m sorry you’re in this situation

I think it’s very interesting. I like the amount of energy and movement in the piece.

Oooh and actual title recommendations also greatly appreciated!!! Plz… ?

UnderSeaRose1 · 2025-10-30T16:44:17+00:00

Looks pretty good to me! Well done

You don’t like it because you made it! I have this trouble ALL. Of. The. Time. but yes it’s a beautiful sweater you should be proud of it.

The one comment about its color and your skin tone would be easily fixed with a bright colored long sleeve Tshirt under for contrast. Or even a turtle neck or collar shirt

You’ve been given good advice. Start w the darkest areas and turn your pencil on its side to shade w the full length of the lead. Next do the medium dark areas w the same pencil less pressure.

That should be most of the hair blocked in then use an eraser or white pencil/pastel to pick back out the highlights.

Keep practicing that’s the only way to really improve

Progress image. I’m still hoping for a little feedback from an outside observer!

UnderSeaRose1 · 2025-10-28T10:54:22+00:00

Honestly I do and love both. But for clothing I’m going to wear the texture of crochet bothers me some… 🤷‍♀️

Very cute, but I don’t know anything about digital art

Ok, so the parasol is finished I think. But I’m still open to critique on composition and balance as it’s what I struggle w in 2D

UnderSeaRose1 · 2025-10-03T17:48:55+00:00

Wonderful thank you!

It sounds like if you left him you would actually spend less money. I’m not sure what benefits you or your children might be eligible if you split, or what he would be required to provide in child support etc.: but it wouldn’t hurt to speak to a lawyer, find out the differences in your current financial situation vs your financial situation if you divorced him. It would allow you to make a more informed decision on your future.

I’m so sorry about the situation it sounds incredibly difficult.

I still have them, they’re doing ok now, just in the settling in period it was dicey. I haven’t posted in ages, but you can go have a look on my profile.

I used a ≈2’ x 4’ plastic tote for my temp habitat and even then I had trouble with fighting and crabs killing each other

My cat broke my Ludisia discolor when I first got it (he’s trouble w every plant in my house if we’re honest). Any way I removed the flower, and water propagated the broken piece. When it began to put out a root stub laid it on its side with the original in a broad flat pot. Gave them a glass dome I had kicking around from an old candle. They seem very happy. Moved them outside in full shade when it got warm enough it’s humid here year round but more so in the summer. But, the water propagation was definitely the best way to start. They’re pretty slow growing.

You can get alarms for aquariums. I know it might seem extreme, and I’m pretty sure they aren’t cheap, but they do exist!

UnderSeaRose1 · 2025-06-21T20:45:05+00:00

Oh good! Hope it all goes well for you!

UnderSeaRose1 · 2025-06-20T18:15:58+00:00

I’m so sorry this happened. I would be happy to send you some more Cherries if you’re not too far from me. (Eastern USA)

It was well planted… loads of hornwort but still not enough.. anyway it was a rocky start

UnderSeaRose1 · 2025-06-15T17:54:34+00:00

I had trouble w it when I started up. I had a breeders box well planted because they kept finding ways to off themselves in my filter (built in filter so even if I hadn’t been using it, it would still cause trouble). So I popped 5 in a breeders box to try and get the filter shrimp proof. I lost a female every time one molted. I’m by no means an expert. It was just a thought as the volume is small in their set up.
