Felt that

My art bf is happy without me.

He chose me back then. Proposed a mutual feedback dynamic. We had little in common, even in art, yet managed to chat for hours due to similar personalities.
But I stopped responding anyway. Back in my head, a voice kept saying "he's not serious about improving, ditch him."

I talked to him a couple times after months of radio silence, and he never complained. Always polite, always positive. Giving me feedback as always. Yet his woes about not drawing enough put me off again, and I'd go quiet.

It's been 6 months of no contact. I watch him stream without saying anything. I stalk his blog. His art is improving a little - not as much as mine -, but he is having fun. He has a small niche of friends who support him and I suspect even a new art gf. All I have are literally who people on Discord giving me empty praise.

Finding pleasure in drawing has never been so hard for me.
I'm sorry, S.
