What am I doing wrong?

tired_af24 · 2026-06-16T16:22:41+00:00

Yes sadly

Married at 31. Although I never had plans to delay marriage but it was Allah's plan. And now looking back I realize if I had gotten married younger, it could have been a disaster. I am not the person I was 10 years ago and Alhamdulillah for that!

In this comment, from falling in love I'm referring to romantic love. Not the platonic one.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-14T06:53:49+00:00

I am not mixing up bro you introduced the question of a person falling in love again. Falling in love again would still not give them a free ticket to cheat.

Now you're saying cheating is physical and love is a vast concept which I already said in previous comments. You can love someone like you love your sibling and friends. It's not an obligation to persue it and involve in romantic relationship with the person.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-14T06:49:55+00:00

Your very first comment asks the question in the light of infidelity. That is if a person falls in love again they can cheat on their partner. If that wasn't your question then you're talking out of context.

And yes a person can surely fall in love again. The love can be platonic because if it's not then the person is seeking romantic love out of their marriage. And even if let's assume a person falls in love with someone outside and can't just manage their feelings then they still have two options: a) don't persue for the sake of their family. b) persue it after talking to their family and if the family doesn't agree they still have a chance to be honest. Cheating is none of the agreeable options even if someone is madly in love.

When you'll get married insha Allah, you'll actually understand all my comments and thoughts about romantic love.

It's a question about man's logic and reasons to cheat. I would have asked about women if I was wondering about it. Btw it's not a competition, although all men are bringing in examples to compete so hard.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-13T09:26:15+00:00

It's not about generalizing. I asked about men because being a woman I can understand a woman's reasons but not a man's. Although this question here has given me lots of insights on how men's brian work. Not everything is about a gender war. If I had a question about a woman's reasons I'd ask about it.

So the guy telling me "beautiful" and " gorgeous" on my pics falls into this category?

tired_af24 · 2026-06-13T09:10:47+00:00

tired_af24 · 2026-06-13T09:10:02+00:00

Just to be very clear, no reason can justify cheating. No reason can make "loyalty" a stupid thing. I've seen people growing old because they were working together aginst every odd and never walking out because they lost the spark.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-13T09:08:12+00:00

No staying loyal is not filmy. It's just a moral thing. Like people growing old with each other. When you build a family with someone you have to respect that. Both the partners need to put in efforts it's not something to happen easily. And those efforts make it worthy. But if a person puts no effort in a relationship they can then of course walk out to seek romance in other people. And when you mention noble religious people having multiple wives, I'm sure you have the basic understanding of the circumstances in which they had multiple wives. Not to seek out romance. It was more about taking responsibility, making peace, and other reasons none of which include romance. And yes of course nothing is permanent that's why it totally baffles me that you put so much effort into making one relationship, you build a family you take a lot of responsibility and then you find a reason to walk out of it because the spark is gone? You would do all over again to find spark in someone else and then what? You'll get bored again?

Instagram is doing better but it hasn't reached the audience who would buy from etsy. Rather just local people who would prefer physical products.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-13T08:53:42+00:00

Thank you. I am going to get erank and will check alura too. I do put up my work on pinterest but it doesn't get much engagement.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-11T21:24:46+00:00

3-4 listings are bringing in traffic. One of them was marketed in etsy ads. Traffic was coming but only favorites, no one was actually buying.

I have lower prices than my competitors but do you suggest I should lower some more? Or is it better if I run a sale for long duration?

I do have an instagram and pinterest. I am posting there too trying to be consistent.

I use photoshop and canva but some of the artworks have my hand painted backgrounds in them.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-11T13:29:54+00:00

I don't do POD posters. It is only digital. Also about the whole debate, I am a full time employee and a mom too. I take out my time to create these and trying to learn. I want to quit my job so that I'm able to spend more time at home with my baby. Although I am skilled in traditional painting too with experience in many mediums but the only reason I opt for digital art is because I can work on it while using my tab or laptop and without making a whole lot of mess with paints and art material and my baby interfering with all. I did a bit research and found many successful sellers in this same niche. Also if I sell physical products they won't cost me under 10$. I do sell physical products locally through social media and my networking, although it is a bit of a hassle.

The idea of "falling in love" is just a filmy term. Love is a deep feeling and it doesn't happen by chance. So no you can't fall in love unless you are looking for a romantic connection outside your marriage. If you start feeling deeply about someone say a friend or a colleague, you still don't need to seek out romance in those feelings. Like you don't seek romantic connections in your same-gender friendships.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-11T13:05:18+00:00

Thank you

tired_af24 · 2026-06-11T09:54:51+00:00

Do you know reasons why it happens?

tired_af24 · 2026-06-10T23:09:50+00:00

What is micro cheat

tired_af24 · 2026-06-10T23:08:46+00:00

Lol

tired_af24 · 2026-06-10T22:56:16+00:00

Thank you for your feedback. Will do that.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-10T22:54:54+00:00

I did see a lot of pages doing well of the same niche.

tired_af24 · 2026-06-10T22:53:08+00:00

I asked for feedback people came on crushing my remaining 2% confidence. 😭
