I just want my husband to not say dumb normie shit like "it's better than what I can do," when I'm laffin about some shitty deviantart shit stain, or "can you draw my family/friend for a card? I forgot to buy one" gag me. Every 3 months he'll ask me to "teach him art" and it's tiring desu

you should date someone who at least respects/knows a little about your hobbies so you can do them together occasionally

>>3514950
Or how 'bout this one I get all the time, 'Can you design me a tattoo?'
The intention is noble but for real I just showed you like the weeb-est shota pictures. You may want a skull or something but you're about to get shota dick tattoo'd on your arm.

>>3514950
Whats with women an limp penises, stop shitting the world with shota shit

>>3514950
play Vidya together, shewitch. he sounds like an old crusty man though and you should be ashamed

>>3514950
>"teach him art"
Oh thats easy, just set up a daily routine for him, babby's first figure, draw a box, whatever, pat him on the back and leave him to it. Have weekly reviews on his progress and provide guidence then. Normies will flunk out after 3 days and never ask again.

By the time you make it clear its a noble grind like folding muh katana nippon swordo a billion times they're ready to jump out of the window.

>>3514982
Lol. Literally never though of this. My girlfriend pulled out the "teach me to draw" card and I showed her some Sycra videos and she told me I wasn't teaching her.

>>3514994
>sycra
no wonder she sniffed out the bullshit

>>3514941
Because not everyone is shallow and pathetic

>>3514941
art hoes are the worst they think they are better then everyone else while at the same time being completely insecure
>never again

plain janes is where it's at

>>3514950
you must be a horrible person to live with yikes
I pity your husband

im an artist girl WITH a nice ass (:

>>3514941
i really want a girl who did russian literature in uni, not that i love russian literature or anything (i do like it) but i just think they'd be kinda up my ally personality wise

>>3514982
>tfw no ability to commit to art despite an interest for most of my life.
>tfw too detectably weak for a gf
>tfw no no-bullshit but loving gf to be patient through my shitty first years of getting gud
>Just the /ic/e cold arms of this forum.

I didn't ask for this feel.

girls that do art are leftie thots, I would never date an art girl

>>3514941
I have a girlfriend, and I'm glad she's not an artist. Artists are annoying. I would know :^)

>>3514950
Let me guess. White, fat, tattoos? I'm talking about you

>>3515164
this
"art girls" have an image to maintain because they're fake as fuck. Plain janes are at least genuine

>>3515232
shes fat and tattooed and still has a significant other when you don't, how does that make you feel? :(

>>3515172
>t.morbidly obese hairy neckbeard

>>3515235
I have a significant other who is neither fat nor hairy. She has a cat tattoo on her ankle though. Sometimes I start to wonder if it's possible that she'll turn into... ugh, I hope not

>>3515234
my man knows whats up

>>3515261
stop larping

>>3515280
Stop projecting.

>>3514941
I want an artist gf so that she's busy with her own hobbies and leave me to work on mine. Ideally I think it's better she doesn't draw though, if she can do music it'll be best for both our egos

>>3515329
>so that she's busy with her own hobbies and leave me to work on mine
This is something that a lot of people tend to overlook. If a girl has no hobby, she'll be really clingy and won't let you focus on your hobbies.

>>3514950
God, fuck off
I pity your husband, I bet he damns the day he met you

>implying putting effort into anything other then your work
>implying wasting time on buying shit for girls
>implying any 3d woman can compare to the beauty i wish to create in my artwork
sex is a good inspiration, there is no such thing as a muse in real life

>>3515411
bitter

>>3515423
nah im just trying to min max my life

I only want to fuck girls that moan "I can't even draw a stick figure" when they're cumming.

>>3515430
I mean, I draw attractive women all the fucking time, my imagination isn't honestly good enough to come up with how hot the girls I draw are.

>>3515443
i have the opposite problem
my imagination is too creative
i just dont possess the skill to make what i want

I am the artist gf and I don't think it's that fun for my boyfriend. For one I've developed this permanent rough patch of skin on my right ankle from sitting cross-legged at my laptop fit hours daily, and my posture is god awful. He's constantly trying to push me out the door to go get some exercise because I spend so much time at my tablet. Sexy.

>tfw no shut in art gf with a nice ass to Loomis and chill with

I can't be the only one feeling this particular feelerino right now. We're all gonna make it someday though, r-...right lads?

https://youtu.be/0h2V8CFtGZE

>>3514950
that honestly sounds pretty wholesome, though I can see how the second one would get annoying

>>3515462
post work or gtfo

>>3515462
whats the point going outside in germany, always raining

everyone in this thread is too young to have a girlfriend. you should all be out fucking and drawing as many girls as you can. this is the most beta shit i've seen on /ic/ in a while.

>>3514941
I'm engaged. She draws with a trackpad (bought a tablet but won't use it), won't do fundies, but it makes me happy to know that she's having a good time and she respects me for working hard at learning art and likes it when I show her /ic/ memes.

It's good to share hobbies.

>>3514982
I wish my boyfriend would accept this. He wants me to teach him but refuses to let me see what he has drawn. Then gets discourage when I tried to show him some tutorials, because it feels like I'm pushing him off.
Its become a touchy subject for him.

>>3514941
After getting really close to a drawfag girl I can say that it was the best but it's not just the fact that you share hobbies. I think theres more about the person itself.
She is also very talented and I learn a lot but being an artist doesnt instatly make you a nice person, sadly.
Of course I felt i was missing a half afterwards

But just dont get someone because of their hobby, if she happens to be an artist then it's a plus.

>>3515462
p-post pics of your stylus being held by your toes
plz

>>3515538
this

>>3515538
Do it for reference

>>3514946
This is the true way.
Just make your sacrifices to Aphrodite and maybe she will help you a hand.

>>3515529

Tell him his ability shouldn't determine his self-worth, because thats a losing stance to get into. Esp. in art where anything you do can be mediately weighted against the biggest masterpieces of all time by anyone with eyes.

He needs to put his self-worth into his convictions instead and make peace with the fact that nothing he does will be good for the next x years. its not reflecting your soul in a mirror, its a craft. Tell him to stop being vain and be like Hokusai.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQj7Lz-srvc

He also sounds like the sort that will have to read War of Art.

>mfw I'm recruiting more potential artists for the job market

I think I might have a death wish of sorts.

>>3515529
What a dweeb, he should be teaching you how to be better not the other way around. Tell him to man up

>>3515529
if he thinks that shit is discouraging tell him to post work on IC ,

>>3515589
I'm not saying this to be demeaning to women btw, I just think however talented and hard working women are, it's men's obligation to be more talented and more hard working somehow. Women don't want to mate with someone who is inferior to them, no matter how great they are, they always want their man to be better. If women are painting like Claude Monet all of a sudden, it's our societal obligation as men to do better, or we don't deserve to procreate with them. Women set the pace in my opinion.

>>3515610
I kinda agree.
I see it this way, if a women were strong enough to feed and defend her and her offspring by herself, than what purpose does a man have other than providing seed once?

It might be a crude way to look at things but ask yourself this, how far away do we really stand from nature and our origins?

>>3514941
Maybe they want a companion who can also be a partner to work with instead of a generic onahole?

>>3515610
>Women don't want to mate with someone who is inferior to them, no matter how great they are, they always want their man to be better.
People fuck people they're attracted to and competence in any field is far from the only reason to feel attracted to anybody. You have a very simple-minded idea of relationships, dude.

>>3515613
ummm to have someone to put my leg on when im laying in bed?

>>3515642
go back to tumblr

>>3515639
expertise and authority are a huge motivating factor for women to be with someone. The difference in millennial generations is trying to foster a patriarchal society that isn't toxic and rapey, but nurturing and supportive, both for the men and women in it. The motivating factor for men to succeed will always be women, it just has to start being for women in a positive way and not in a negative way. Equality isn't fair to women in my opinion, and leaves men unsatisfied with their lives. Women want to feel like they have a man in their life that can take care of them and support them, regardless of if the woman works at McDonalds or is on the Supreme Court. They want their man to be better than them in some way they find aspirational to their life. Something they want to be but either don't have the time or energy to pursue. Men are attracted to appearences, women are attracted to expertise.

>>3515651
do you have any peer-reviewed studies to back any of these claims or are you just talking out of your ass

>>3515664
Out of my ass

>>3515665
fair enough

>>3515504
I'm a 32 year old boomer tho, just how much older do I have to get?

>>3514941
Tfw artist girlfriend with nice ass. I got lucky.

>>3514941
i want a fundie grinding artist bf

>>3515489
No.

>>3515492
Sounds heavenly. We are currently experiencing a drought here in the UK. Haven't had rain for weeks and weeks now and everything has died under the baking sun. All the grass has turned yellow, it's hideous.

>>3515708
This drought is killing my garden.

>>3515704
Are u a girl(male)?

>>3515717
rip, that blows. I'm a bit of a houseplant aficionado, have over 30 individual plants. Made the mistake of leaving 6 of them in an East-facing window. Scorched the entire side of every plant. Practically had to cut them in half to remove the dead side. Am pissed.

You got a sprinkler to save your garden?

i have an artist gf, and honestly it's shit.

we're both aiming for pro, i'm way ahead of her, already getting work. she's worse than /beg/ tier, won't put in the effort and has no work ethic, but still gets jealous/depressed that she's not good enough.

i think this kind of dynamic would work if both are at the same level artistically, and with the same work ethic, or the shit one in the relationship is secure in themselves being just a hobbyist. unmotivated 'future professionals' make the worst romantic partners

>>3514941
I have an art gf, but not for the art, just kinda happened. I work as a programmer and am a STEM nerd and prefer that big brain on girls. I'm def smarter than her, but her memory is crazy good. She real cute imo tho. I just hope she doesn't turn out to be crazier than what she's shown me so far.

>>3515849
>She real cute imo tho.
so what you're saying is she's a 4, otherwise known as a 4chan 7

>>3515859
Bingo haha, she still looks really freakin cute to me tho, I guess I'm just happy when I see her

art gf with art bf here. we're on the same level more or less, and both have pretty good opportunities and publicity. I always told myself never to date another artist but it works, somehow. Watching and critiquing stupid cartoons together is fun

>>3516285
Where do I find one of you? Asking for a friend btw

>>3516344
just frequent art circles that aren't filled with preachy annoying LA assholes. Outside of them everyone is pretty chill, women or men. And please bathe regularly

>>3515718
why do i have to be (male)

>>3514950
>marries a normie
>complains that he acts like a normie
women

My girlfriend of now 4 years is into digital drawing, but recently shifting into GD. She's hella insecure, but cute AF, and not fake. She also thinks I shouldn't use 4 Chan

>>3516426

the hacker known as Four Chan is a dangerous criminal, honey, just read this pigfeed article

at least promise me you'll wear a condom on your head while browsing okay? ;_;

>>3516426
I call bullshit, post pics of that cheater, she's fake, no one's that perfect

>>3514941
my girlfriend has an art degree and works as a receptionist
she draws little hearts and stars sometimes

>>3516434
Sure senpai (slips oily condom on face, chokes, dies) well fuck man, thanks for nothing

>artist girl
no thanks, I'd rather not date someone with BPD

I used to think the same, but then it's really something else when you find someone who you can vibe with.

When I met my boy, he was worse at art than me but he was really pleasant to be around. Now he's better than me IMO, though I am the one who used to critique and redline his stuff. My boyfriend is the closest friend I had and eventually became a backbone for me as a person and an artist when I can't help myself.

Before my boo, I used to think I would be happy with someone who was cute, not crazy, and doesn't think too hard about anything. Didn't even have to be an artist or even read, and I was wary of dating artists anyway. But if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have known how much happier and better my life (and art life) could be. He's gone at the moment and after having someone like that by you for years, it's suddenly as if a part of your heart and brain is missing. When I draw, read, or analyze film, my studies seem imcomplete somehow without sharing it with my bf. Right now I am coloring my bf's lineart and feeling like crying.

The right person for you is so personal that it doesn't matter whether or not your boo is an artist or a pleb in the big picture.

>>3516519
>you will never have someone think this way about you

>>3516463

>>3517291
Literally just stop ablooing and start doing

>>3516463
>married to someone who has diagnosed bpd
>she's not even an artist
whoops

The only qualities of a woman any man worth his salt should care about are as follows: 1) she has a strong maternal instinct and naturally seeks to nurture, care for, love, and nurture young children and small animals; 2) she is not obese and is 6-7 in looks (too pretty = she's spoiled, too ugly = she's ugly); 3) she is mentally stable (as stable as a woman is capable of being); 4) she does not want a "career" (i.e. does not want to get pregnant with her firstborn at age 39); 5) she cooks and cleans after you and the 5+ kids you had better put in her

To any young men who take my advice, you're welcome. You can thank me later.

>>3517788
I forgot one tidbit. Only marry a virgin. But only if you are a virgin yourself. The pure deserve the pure and whoremongers deserve whores. Pre-marital sex is degenerate but you'd better pork her before proposing and if she doesn't bleed, don't propose.

I'd rather date someone who was really great at something other than drawing, music, programming, sewing, even graphic design, all fair game. I already talk to artists all day and it does my head in.

>>3517765
Hey now,

It just seems like everybody is taken or not interested in a relationship if, against all odds, I catch them in the two weeks they might be available in a given year. I'm not ugly or in bad shape-I...I do stuff!

>>3517860
(also for the record I don't abloo irl this is my only outlet for it jeez)

>>3517796
but if she doesn't bleed I also lost my virginity so no point in search for a virgin by your words, so might aswell marry the unvirgin

>>3515440
Hey look, someone funny in a shit thread

>mfw has artist gf
PEAK COMFY.

had a art gf for a while and it sucked.

so hard to give feedback without hurting feelings. best thing to do is keep art out of relationship imo.

>>3516519
>he's gone at the moment
so is he dead or just away? im a fucking brianlet and the way you write makes it seem like you're grieving.

if thats the case, im sorry for your loss. if not, then yall are so pure and cute af.

>>3514941
tbqh i would rather a girlfriend whos very into a science subjects

>>3517962
you actually don't. girls who can tolerate higher level math and physics curricula are basically spoiled from constant attention from the dozen of beta orbiters they accumulate. find a dim-witted church going girl and put 5 babies in her.

>>3515801
My garden is south facing, so everything was baking last week. Some of my houseplants in the conservatory, which is also south facing, died in the heat.

My garden is tiered so a sprinkler doesn't really work very well, I just hose the whole thing down erryday in this weather.

>>3514941
>tfw artist gf who also has a nice ass
Living the fucking dream

>>3517939
Lol thanks. I kinda am grieving even though he's not dead. Right now he's in boot camp for a couple months (it HAD to be during summer, of course) and in Russia they can't even receive letters from their families. Once he's on a base he won't get to keep a smartphone so it's going to be a while until I can hear from him. He was progressing pretty well and we became an item only for a couple months before he was conscripted. He won't be able to draw, go to school, or improve as he wants for the year that he's gone and we've had some heart to heart about the military life (I am US military) and what we want to do after we're done with service.

Now I am just waiting for him to come back so we can draw together side-to-side towards gonnamakeitland

Married to a chinawoman who shares my hobby, also expecting so she started to do it and we plan to read him art book when he's born so we might have a art child

>>3519715
Ah yes, art book

>>3519677
well i hope you the best, both you and your SO and art careers(?).

>>3519715
That's fucking adorable.

I have a qt gf who can draw but now that I'm working my way up the artistic ladder, it bugs the fuck out if me how little she puts into it and still expects to get a lot out of it. She wants to do animation eventually but doesn't want to practice things she doesnt like like landscapes ans maybe draws something every few weeks and only when she happens to be over and I'm already drawing. I hope to surpass her and help guide her to true heights.

>>3519677
how did a us military girl get a russian army bf
what a story

>>3520415
>implying anon isn't in the navy and a guy

>>3515011
Yeah sure, if you're gonna end there. Sycra got me started really learning how to draw in high school. Yeah, if I stopped there I wouldn't have the skills I do now but he's a good teacher for anyone starting out.

>>3514941
help with ambition

>>3520417
why navy lol

>>3522463
join the army, sleep in a cot
join the marines, sleep in a ditch
join the air force, sleep in a bed
join the navy, sleep with a bloke

>>3514941

I don't think I want one but then I meet a qt arty girl and then suddenly I give a fuck again.

Then I get hurt and the cycle repeats.

tf no gf fags are pathetic

What about both?

keep your artist gf's, all i really want is a final solution to the JQ.

>>3524160
>JQ

Jelqing? Don't do that, I fucked my dick up and now I can't even get hard.

>>3514950
preach

>>3515651
have you ever... talked with a woman? Not like in passing or in class, but just, sit down and chat?

>>3518067
hope u like cyanide cocktails

>>3520417
i've never heard of gaybros actually being so mushy about relationships

>>3514941
>tfw non-artist gf
>tfw gf is also flat
A-at least I get blowjobs I guess

>>3515822
This is my greatest fear when it comes to "Art GF"

>>3524269
Women shouldn't have careers anyway during their child bearing years. You should be impregnating them. Let her get a job nannying after menopause and the 4 kids move out.

>>3524730
How are you gonna support your wife and 4 kids on an artist salary anyway, that's the real question we are all asking

>>3524791
if you can't then you stay alone, and don't complain for being alone because you can't sustain a family

>>3514941
Artist gf = liberal = you getting cucked

>>3524867
Most artists = will never have large progeny to prove sexual success and genetic superiority

>>3524236
Tfw flat artist gf.

On the bright side, gives killer blowjobs though, and we're both working professionals as illustrators now.

>>3524193
you'd be surprised
there's a lot of loud mansluts out there, but the quiet romantics are usually very romantic
>tfw no artist bf

>>3524878
flat is justice

>>3524957
It's sub-par, but I'm more of a booty man myself so I can deal with it.
