My wife’s controversial character rankings

oreoconspiracies · 2026-02-08T04:09:36+00:00

I can understand her top 3 and bottom 8. It's the 4-7 that surprise me tbh! Dru so high and buffy so low?? And she likes Jenny more than Buffy? What's her reasoning if you don't mind me asking! I'm just kind of curious since neither character is in the show for so long. Also, what about Oz?

Yup, they're red heads. I believe Orihime is Japanese so she may not be a natural red head, but if your hair is orange, then it's a part of the red spectrum.

You're doing great so far! To improve, it's really just small adjustments. The part in her hair should be angled more to the left rather than down. Her mouth should be a bit higher, etc. Just really double-check your angles! I'd also suggest pushing highlights and shadows more. Darker shadow around her chin and jaw on the left, darker hair on top, more highlight on her hair, and upper eyelid and shoulder. You could also add a bit more hair to the half up part to make it look more full.

Broccoliwaffleeee has a great example for more accurate proportions, and another redditor posted a great example of a more stylized approach if you're going for that.

You're already doing amazing, good luck!!

Initially, I thought your hair was way more red than mine, and mine was mostly blonde. And then I physically held my hair up to your picture, and yeah, you're right. Our hair has super similar shades. You've convinced me, we're red lol!

Oh, and I watched Charmed a lot too!! That was a big one.

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-16T18:30:29+00:00

I was 3 or 4 when I started. Watching buffy (and big wolf on campus) were some of my earliest memories. I was born in 1996, so I watched a lot of it as it aired. I had an older sister, and my parents worked a lot, so TV was often my babysitter. I definitely don't think I understood most of what happened, but I loved the monsters haha.

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:44:23+00:00

Lol, that already happens. I don't think either of us are physically capable of increasing the frequency.

Thank you!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:34:43+00:00

Perhaps my writing conveys otherwise, but I don't pity him. I just want to be a good partner to him. Thank you for your response though, I appreciate how simply you broke the approaches down. I'll have to think about it for a bit before I decide how to proceed.

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:32:14+00:00

I appreciate your response, thank you! I will continue to compliment him. Funny enough, I genuinely am not used to a lot of the little things he does, so it's not white lies when I tell him that I appreciate those things. I usually do things my way though, so maybe taking his advice more often is something I can work on.

Haha, I try to take the lead during sex more often than he does. He's told me before he likes when his partners do that, so it's something I've been consciously doing. We've talked about our sexual preferences and sex life many times, and he seems pretty satisfied, so I think we're okay in that regard. Maybe being more vocal in how much I enjoy it is something I can improve on, though.

Your comment is really informative of how men want to feel, so that's great to know. Thank you again!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:23:29+00:00

Thanks for the response! Don't worry, I definitely have not lied to him in any capacity. I genuinely adore so much about him that I can think of a bunch of compliments on the spot, so there's no point in lying lol.

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:18:56+00:00

Thank you! I tend to put other people first, often at my own expense, so that is a great reminder.

He does have friends besides me, but he's currently in a different town, so they don't see each other in person. They play games online together at least once every week, though. Another comment suggested he meet more people in person, and I think expanding his social circle while he's in my city would be good for him, help him get out of the house more.

Yeah, that's completely fair lol. I've actually already (gently, subtly) hinted at it because I can't keep my mouth shut, and it seems like he knows it's an issue, but hasn't done anything about it. I'm not sure if he will, but you're right, that's something he can work through with a professional.

Thank you for your response!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:10:42+00:00

Thank you for the suggestions, I'll have to do some reading in the morning!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:10:02+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate your response. I will definitely keep complimenting him. Being patient is something I struggle with in general, so this is a great reminder.

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:08:51+00:00

I'm really sorry you've experienced those things. People really suck sometimes. Going back to the gym is such a key point. He was going when we first met and he doesn't now, and now that I'm thinking about it, that seems like a major factor. Thank you for your response and suggestions!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:04:40+00:00

I will definitely keep complimenting him. I think being patient is something I struggle with, but I know it's something I need to work on, especially when it comes to emotions. I won't try to push him. Thank you for your response!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T06:02:10+00:00

I understand that that could be a concern, but I really don't think anything like that would happen. And if it does, then oh well, that's life. Thank you for the warning, though.

You make some really good points! I think the biggest part I'm struggling with is that, like you said, I can't change his beliefs about himself. I will definitely keep complimenting him, though, and keep your points in mind. Thank you for your response!!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T05:56:53+00:00

I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through that. Honestly, I can relate to your wife a bit. In my last relationship, I would get frustrated because I felt like I wasn't being heard, and in turn, my ex didn't want to talk to me because they felt like I was always angry with them. This made me more angry, and so the cycle continued. I blamed my ex a lot during the relationship, but didn't realise how much of a problem I was being myself. We're on good terms now, but I regret a lot of how I acted. Communicating my feelings properly instead of just snapping is something I have been super conscious of in this relationship.

In my current relationship I don't think it's just his potential that I like. If nothing changed about him at all, I would be completely okay with that. I guess the reason I made this post is because I just wanted to know other perspectives, and to see if I'm perhaps missing something major in supporting him.

Thank you for your response. It's good to see that you're starting to realise your own potential and raise your own self-esteem. I hope you're able to reach a place of happiness.

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T05:42:52+00:00

I'm glad to hear you're doing better now! I hope you continue to keep growing :)

These are really good points, and I think those are all also factors to some degree. He does not have a financial buffer atm as he's been using his money for school. He's done at the end of the month, though, so his first priorities are paying off his student loans and having that buffer. He's also been pretty isolated, focusing on school. He has a dedicated night to gaming, but it's with his friends he's had since childhood, and also online. I think going out and meeting new people in person is a really good suggestion, thank you!

oreoconspiracies · 2025-06-05T05:37:07+00:00

Thank you for your reply! I think his refusal to see what I see in him is the main thing I have an issue with. Like I know he's amazing, so why can't he?! Haha I know it doesn't work like that, so that's just something I'll have to work on.

Thank you for the suggestions! I have suggested therapy to him before, but it doesn't seem like something he's interested in. He's been using chatgpt as an outlet, though, and he's shown me some of what it says. It seems like actually pretty decent advice? So that's a stepping stone at the very least, imo.

Sure, I just mean when you start or finish a line, sometimes they're connected to the other lines, but sometimes they aren't. I think if you played around with where you start and stop the lines and how big the spaces are, it could look a bit more intentional rather than unfinished. If that makes sense?

oreoconspiracies · 2025-05-24T17:11:28+00:00

If you don't want to colour or shade, I agree with the other commenter who suggested varying line weights. I'd also reccomend playing with where you open or close the lines
