>Is there a place where artists can date?

maybe like a site or board. I often hear how artists are usually in a relationship with another artist, so I wonder where they find each other. The art scene nowadays is just filled with artists who are fishing for fame and popularity, how can you even trust someone's real intentions?

The thing is those artists you hear about probably actually gig, and meet/interact with each other as they're going about having a career. It's hard to meet other artists when you're not good and not putting yourself out into the world professionally. And if you aren't fully autistic it's pretty easy to tell who really likes you and who is just trying to get something from you, especially in a market as autismo-centric as art.

I don't understand why art girls are bad. I always see advice being posted on avoiding them but it's never expanded beyond that. I don't leave my house ever so I won't be in a relationship but I want to know what makes an art girl so much worse than someone else. The amount of people telling anons to avoid them has me so curious.

Exceedingly high index of BPD and narcissism. You know the bitter, hateful posts you see here trashing specific artists or YouTubers? Very likely to be female posters, of which there are plenty in /ic/.

Unless you want to be with someone who is self-absorbed, cuts, will cheat on you and blame you for it, etc... do not get an art gf. It's like picking the bottom of the barrel for women.

[Anonymous No.3725828]

>>3723554
Maybe not at that effect, but a dating app for artists would be neat. Your bio can be about yourself and you have a gallery to show off what you do, whether that's illustration, animation, etc.

Although, it probably wouldn't work if you're already an established artist or industry professional. Imagine shit like CartoonBrew reporting that a well-known animator is looking for love.

>do not date another artist

It all depends on the person. Dating a non-artist kinda stinks because they dont really "get" you or understand your work ethic or how you see things, but if they click with you, artist or not, that's all that matters. I love my non-artist partner with all my heart, and he's very supportive with what I do, but little things annoy me like him not understanding why I have so many sketchbooks and art supplies.

Artists base their self worth on their art. Women have a larger range of emotions they live through (higher highs, lower lows). They can also have feelings about their feelings and maintain both at the same time.
A solid male comparison is getting turned on by something you know is wrong. The shame drives the excitement of the situation.
Women are generally more interested in people than things and less competitively inclined as they get into their 30s. They’re very likely to taper off and accept a reasonable job to start a family. (Obviously there are exceptions).
The danger here is that if you’re dating a girl and she tapers off she becomes jealous of you progressing or wants you to spend more time with her, babies and friends n family.
The smart thing is to build such a social network as working more won’t make you happy (even art past a point).

I don’t know about you guys but I’m looking for a wife type of girl that is good at organizing and completely mindblown by my painting skills (I’m already working so to normies it looks great).

It depends on the person, and sometimes depends on what kind of art career they're pursuing.
Speaking from experience however, most girls that pursued animation, cartooning or comics were either batshit, quirky "scene" girls, or autistic socially awkward cringey girls.

I had roommates that were both.

>one roomate was "straight edge" and listened to shit like Mindless Self Indulgence and obsessed with the Shin Megami Tensai games. She cooked though so that was cool. She was actually fun to hang out with, but not good dating potential.
>other roommate was aspergers, liked to wear clothes from hot topic, big weeaboo. Would emulate anime poses, like the nervous hand behind head while nervously laughing pose. Would sit in her room all day with headphones so she didnt bother anyone, which was nice. Also big into cartoons, especially Invader Zim. Surprisingly, she had a boyfriend for one semester, but she broke up with him via Deviantart PM, which I warned her not to do, but didn't listen.

The aspie girl was nice and quiet, but she grew up as an only child who wasn't taught to share, so she'd take our food. She also didnt drive, so she would ask me if I could drive her to the mall to spend her money on the new dubbed anime boxsets that came out at FYE. Never offered gas money either.

Look, as a romantic myself, who's with someone vulnerable (my wife's a sweet bubbly girl, but that's because she's straight up autistic), look out and have some respect for yourself- current and future. Somebody worth being with would hold their cards to their chest a little longer, and if he's already shown you his hand, he has nothing else to offer and expects nothing of you.

Alright. I'll keep that in mind.
For now I just want to have fun with him, do all the gay shit couples do because he really really likes me.
I also thought relationships like what we have were a meme before. In fact, I rejected him a couple times long ago because I thought it was fucking dumb. I told him we can only be internet art buddies, it hurt him but took the rejections pretty nicely. Over time, I figured the guy just legit wants to spend time with me even if it's only on the other side of the screen. There were a few times I would miss a deadline and it made feel incompetent af at my job but he would be there trying to cheer me up sending words of encouragement until I stop sulking about it. It's a small thing but it motivates me to do better at drawing. He really does care ._.
I know he has genuinely good intentions. Otherwise, I would have ghosted him in an instant if he was another fuckboy on the internet. What started as random chitchats and art trades, got to the point where I would free my time just to talk to him. Sounds stupid, but yeah I started to grow feelings for a guy I never met in person. We have lots of similarities and there was just a connection there I never had with anyone. I could be out to dinner with another man I know but my thoughts would drift to him. When he asked me out again two months I ago, it was then I agreed to be his gf. He was so freakin happy that day he couldn't believe it was real and even cried, lmao. My bf would thank me over and over that I became his gf.

We're not that super far from each other. 174 miles apart. The reason why we haven't met is I am too occupied with my job, I don't want to file a leave just to meet a guy even if I love him. Priorities. We are both reclusive artists, we hate traveling. But we're going to be with each other on the holidays for a while. We will make this work out for us.
