Another personal piece, in addition to this one. Big boys don't cry, right?
Some people have problems with introspection. Sometimes it takes pain and suffering to make them think. Took me a foot.
Lying on the floor, crippled and helpless, I would give my soul for her to be there and sit next to me. The closest person I ever had. Too late though. My fault. All my fault...
As for today - wish I could just run in and yell "I object", but... The only thing left is to let her go.
So I guess I'm free now. Никому конь не нужен? Малость поломанный, но всё ещё живой.

I must disclaim first that I'm not the best at trying to put my thoughts into words, but I shall try!
I admit this piece and its description grabbed my curiosity and then, following the links and previous announcements, I was dragged along through your story. I feel I could resonate with it in a way as I was never able to sufficiently reciprocate the feelings of someone that tolerated me far longer than they should have, than I deserved, and I will never be able to make that up to them - but that's a story for some other time, yours is the focus.
To those with the absurd mentality of 'boys don't cry' or insist men should just 'man up' and forbid themselves from feeling, I say to hell with 'em. You can yell and you can cry as much as you want and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Bottling things up is never the healthy choice. Now onto the blame, continuously beating yourself up over past events and decisions is painful, but that's all it is. Accept that your past decisions and self caused problems, and while this too can be painful it can also be learned from and let you move on. After all, the fact you acknowledge this fault shows that you are no longer that self, that you have grown as a person (or hoss) and so holding your current self responsible would be an injustice. A punishment for something you no longer do, if that makes sense.
I'm sorry for the text wall and any lack of clarity, I tried my best to convey my thoughts, but there's always a bias when reading one's own words. And while I am a complete stranger that only came across you moments ago and I might even be overstepping, but I'd like you to know that I'll be around. Whether you want to vent or chat, or to even just know someone else is around that's willing to listen I'll be here.
Oh, and of course I adore your art and I sincerely hope things have been improving for you.

It's complicated. I always wished her a happy life (and this is actually one of the main reasons we got apart - I thought I'm not worthy of her), so if she will be happy - I'll be happy too (well, as much as I can, of course).
Though I'm worried about the future. I kind of had my plans for her... And it's all gone now. Even the backup plan is gone because the very day I decided to start a new life, change my appearance, make myself a better body - the next day I broke a leg. And when I'll be released from my cast, every place I could go will be under quarantine. That's first. And second - honestly I don't know if I could find anybody who could match her. Somebody clever and beautiful. Someone who'd let me keep the freedom I need. Someone to understand that drawing is not just a silly hobby - it's a part of my life, a part of my soul.
Some say I want too much, but I'm not an ordinary person either. It'll take years to find one, and it'll take even more to get her to the same level of trust I had with my lovely kitten. Yet I'm not getting any younger. And I don't even know where to look...

Ah, I perfectly understand that. Relationships are a balancing act with no sense of balance. Even the kindest of intents can conflict with each other; wanting what you perceive as the best for the other person can form criticisms against yourself. You are left questioning your own behaviour, actions, and personality but anyone judging themselves will be faced by an oft negative bias. Even staring too long into a mirror will warp one's perception. The reality is there's no standard to hold one's self against, no such thing as guidelines that will universally fit every relationship and person. Such is the uniqueness of humans. We're a bunch of disorganised shapes that occasionally just have the right faces and edges to fit with another, if even only temporarily. But with this randomness comes the fact that there won't only ever be one shape that fits.
The world can often seem cruel and kick us while we're down and I'm truly sorry you have had to endure so many blows in so short a time. As for finding another, there will always only be one her. Forming new bonds shouldn't be to try and replace or replicate her; they are new. Your path with her has ended and she has continued alone along her own, as painful as it may be, but you also have your own path to travel. To find another will not be to repeat the path you had with her, but to forge an entirely new path together with this new person. As for your freedom, all I can say there is communication is important. Explain to them how important your art is to you. And worth noting is they don't need to be fascinated by art to understand how much you yourself value having it in your life; people with different values can still coexist.
There is nothing wrong with wanting things. You alone know what you want, so pay no heed to what others say. They do not have your mind and the desires, values, feelings that come with it. I'm afraid I have no input on how to find people to bond with. All I can give there is a generic idea of mingling in communities with similar interests to you. Groups focused on art or whatever else you love. And worrying about time will only slow you down, as ironic as that is.

I see. For that all I can say is put yourself out there in other ways. Perhaps branch out from what you know, explore new communities and so on. Obviously with the virus doing its thing I understand that's improbable at the moment, but it will pass. Though communication at the very least can still be done. And I know it may be hard, especially with what you've endured, but don't doubt yourself or your worth. These feelings you've dealt with are proof that you're a considerate fellow and worthy of anyone. You have done so much to try and improve yourself, something very few people do, so be proud of that. I for one am certainly impressed.
Вот, кстати, чувак прав - искать кого-то похожего на бывшую это заведомо проигрышный вариант. Просто потому что никогда не найдешь, а в особо тяжелых случаях еще и все мозги сам себе выйиффешь. А вообще все самые интересные знакомства, сколько себя помню, например, всегда получались случайными. :Р
Это "минимум не хуже" и получается, что вольно или невольно ты будешь сравнивать с бывшей, ища совпадения по определенным параметрам. Не, иметь определенные идеалы того, что и кто тебе подходит, а что нет это хорошо и правильно, но вот сравнивать с тем, что у тебя уже было, но не стало контрпродуктивно.
Может, конечно, у тебя и так получится...

Сравнения в любом случае будут, ибо к хорошему привыкаешь и менять на что-то менее качественное тоже не хочется. Но я согласен в том, что не может всё быть идеальным, и какие-то мои "идеалы" могут быть весомее остальных. Зато прикинь, какой вах-эффект будет, если всё будет лучше?)
Будут, так мозг устроен и с этим ничего не поделаешь на первых порах.
"Качественный человек ручной работы с вышивкой"... ох уж эти ассоциации. :Р
Это, наверное, надо себе удачу в 10 прокачать, чтобы получить "по всем параметрам лучше". Хотя, если то, что ты выше писал про "вумный, красивый девушка, понимающий как важен рисовач и свобода" это все твои пожелания, то хватит и 8-9. :)

Глядя на этот безумный мир и имея за плечами некоторый жизненный опыт самых разных работ (от конюха до программиста/дизайнера), я всё больше убеждаюсь, что рисовать - это лучший выбор. Возможно, это не самые большие деньги, зато работа в кайф. Следовательно, решающим фактором будет именно понимание рисовача, личного пространства и свободы, необходимой для творчества. Подозреваю, что тут будет прямая корреляция с умом, потому что многие до сих пор не понимают, как это - на работу не ходит, в компьютере играется, ещё и деньги зарабатывает? Срочно сжечь! Ну а касаемо красоты - за модельной внешностью я точно не гонюсь, милой мордахи и более-менее адекватной фигуры мне будет достаточно. Ещё неплохо бы увлечение спортом - эту самую фигуру поддерживать. Ну а если ролики/сноуборд/лыжи/велик/самокат (нужное подчеркнуть) - вообще отлично, ибо общая активность. Не всё же по паркам/кафешкам гулять.
Это самое главное, когда работа в удовольствие. К тому же это дает тебе ту самую свободу в отличие от протирания штанов в офисах или бегании с замыленным языком.
А про личное пространство указано не было! :) Ну и требует некоторой расшифровки, потому что всякое видел.
Бедные жиробаски опять в обломе. XD
Но вообще это самые обычные запросы, которые можно представить, и найти самку под них вполне реально и без какой-то сверхудачи. Так что тут главное не унывать и не грузить себе мозг.
Ты извини, если я тут внаглую полез в чужие потемки, но чегой-то любопытчкик куснул и все тут. :Р

Гони прочь ностальгивчиков, никакой пользы от копания в прошлом и щемящих чувств они не дают, только тратят твое драгоценное время и нервы. Сам прошел через похожее, ничего кроме растраченного на покусание "самоанализом" времени и сил это не дало. Один хрен - прошлого не изменишь, а вторые шансы выпадают крайне редко.
Хм. А чего объявление про коня на русском? Буржуинам не предлагаешься? :)

Опять же слабо верится, потому что это минимум полгода после знакомства на узнавание друг друга поближе, и после этого личная встреча, которая сразу всё расставляет по местам. Или не сразу, потому что одно дело - встречи, а другое - совместное житьё-бытьё. Смыть, повторить. Короче, я вижу это бессмысленной тратой времени. Нет, я бы с радостью познакомился поближе с... ммм, некоторыми персоналиями, но я им не интересен от слова "вообще". Так что буду попробовать искать где-то рядом. А объявление бонусом - мало ли кто заметит и заинтересуется. Ещё планируется несколько артиков с рекламой себя, потому тексты мало кто читает, а картинки любят все :)
this really hits me straight to the soul. I know what this pain is like all too recently. It's good to let your emotions out, I was raised never to cry. Was that way for years until my first heartbreak and then it all came flooding out. I cherish the moments now when something moves me to tears. You will get through the pain <3
I think that we both know the way that this story ends
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier. So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go
