/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I used to make cosplays for my boyfriend. He’s a sweet guy but cosplay brings out the absolute worst in him, to the point where I won’t make him shit or do cosplay groups with him anymore.
He started asking for increasingly complex costumes in increasingly short timeframes, and being an ingrate about it (He’d wear it for a few hours for a photoshoot and then throw it on the floor and let it get wrinkled and stepped on and ruined) The last cosplay I made for him was one he said he was going to make himself, procrastinated on, then handed me the material two days before the con and asked me to make it for him. He was part of a group photoshoot and was fretting about how he’d “ruin the group and let everyone down”, so I concrunched it for him. It was definitely a rush job, but it was fine for a photoshoot. He wore it to the con, bitched about how it looked bad and how embarrassed he was, and then treated it like shit after the photoshoot.

I told him I’m not sewing shit for him anymore. I think he thought I would change my mind, but it’s been 6 months and I’m still not budging.
