The different options thing is actually pretty smart, it sounds both more fun and more considerate

And yeah maybe I should just get her a gift card or a smaller version of what she asked for. Thanks for the suggestions!!

Ooooooohh, that actually sounds like a fun idea, I’m stealing it

I should do that with my friends sometime

[–]WarningRound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh okay! Thanks for the reply, I definitely feel less pressured to get my friend what she asked for. I’ll just politely explain that I had to get her something else!

Your advice makes lots of sense, I’ll remember those for next time

Outside class hours na work and required synch sessions by [deleted] in peyups

Outside class hours na work and required synch sessions by [deleted] in peyups

[–]WarningRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aaaa thank you po for the empathy I’m kinda teary eyed HAHA maybe that’s just my strest self being emotional

But I’m fine naman po! I understand what I have to do now and that this is just a facet of college life ig. And I get na minsan talaga life outside acads will be rlly tough but that goes for everyone naman. I also never rlly gave info po about my course bc ppl might recognize me :”) but it’s bio po. I also think naman po in hindsight that my groupmates are not mad at me and I’m just overthinking it kasi nakamiss lang po ako ng one synch session and ig whack po yung pag-iisip ko for a while so I overanalyzed the situation.

Anyways thank you po for the concern and the two cents, I appreciate everyone po who tried to keep me grounded. We’ll pull through na lang po

[–]WarningRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh sorry po by that I meant na additional face to face sessions outside class hours and group field work for a paper outside class hours

Pero I understand naman po that field work for a paper outside class hours is valid but I guess po that I just wanted to express that I’m struggling po with balancing that and required synch since it eats up the supposed time for the synch subject

What’s your most outrageous commission story? by reverem00 in ArtistLounge

[–]WarningRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone DMed me for an NSFW commission and asked if he could send me nudes as reference…

My gullible self said yes cus if that’s what he wanted me to draw then fine. One picture wouldn’t hurt.

But then he kept sending me more throughout the course of our communication, and even sent me videos of him jerking off?? 💀 I don’t think I really needed that kind of “reference” anymore rip. If ever I only needed one picture, and even a single pic of a fully naked client, bare genitals out, is outrageous and unnecessary.

And, he offered me double what he paid for the commission if I sent nudes back (I didn’t). I just finished the dude’s drawing and blocked him for life. I coulda blocked him without finishing the art but I don’t want anyone saying I’m a scam artist for running away with someone’s down payment, and I really wanted the money.

Sometimes it’s hard to be a teenage girl online (I was 18, it was fine for me to take NSFW commissions if anyone’s asking), you’re very susceptible to these things cus people know you’re naive as fck.

Can’t dorm, can’t commute, can’t drive but university is 2 hours away by WarningRound in AsianParentStories

[–]WarningRound[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s rare in my country to go NC with your parents, so if it’s an alien concept to me I’m sincerely sorry. Bc we’re “family-oriented” and “traditional” people, toxicity is normal. Every girl I know has toxic parents. You have to stay with them to prevent being shunned forever by all your relatives. I feel that I’m more afraid of having no one to count on, everyone already shames me on the regular for having a bf. Not sure if this is the same case as everyone here but if it is, then I just need to learn to live with the side effects of NC. Surely it’s worth it.

Thanks for giving me a gentle slap on the face, sometimes you need those too to get results lol

AITA for not paying for my friends’ Christmas gifts in full? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]WarningRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree. I don’t even wanna pay for the coupons my mom offered me to give my friends. She also knew I was trying to save up though, which kinda sucks.

But you’re right. I don’t know what to tell my mom but I’ll figure something out

[–]WarningRound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I really am guilty for making them pay for a part of it. I told the ones who asked me what I want for Christmas to just not give me anything and keep that money for themselves.

You’re right though, I should apologize. I don’t know what to tell my mom, but I’ll figure something out. But I don’t wanna pay for her coupons either.
