So I'm digging through my old computer looking for something when I come across this.
I'd like to make it a point that when I share my 'sad' or personal comics on here they arent for 'the attention', i'm not seeking help or advice, im not looking to have anyone care for me, its simply me wanting to share my stories or how I feel. I want to convey them and coming across this I found this years old comic still relevant.
This story was originally created because friends, whom I no longer talk to, seemed to have problems with how I got along with other people besides them. When orginally all I had really was them and a few others.
It wasnt just new relationships formed but I was once upon a time starting to get somewhere online with my art. But suddenly from encouragement it turned into scolding. Suddenly everything I worked hard for turned into being lucky, into just having talent, things I wanted to share with people, was just me bragging out loud to them.
and looking back on this comic now. I realized how much I mustve been effected by this.
I no longer have the supportive following I had, I no longer talk to the people I once called friends. I have problems with commitment. If I start to get anywhere with my art, I leave without a word, I find a new social platform, I run away to start anew. And I do the same with friends I make now. I cannot get close to people. It is both a compliment and a d*ck move by me, when the closer I am to you, the more I want to push you away. And I do end up doing it, once we're close it becomes nature to get them out of my life until they are completely filtered through. And its awful and I'm a jerk, and I wanted to stay friends with you. But I couldnt take it.
And thats where I am today. But I'm hoping maybe just maybe I can pick myself back up and stop that stupid cycle. But I guess we'll see.
