112. Are you sure they are dating someone else? Do they feel weird with female on female crushes and all that? Also, have you gotten to know each other OOC and not just IC? If it's just IC then your feelings could be about the character, or mixed in. If you can be open with each other that means there's a lot of trust, which is a good thing.
Only way to find out is to ask before you take your feelings further.
122. I'm an American and I'm not too crazy about American culture, but it's still wrong that others want to rag on you about it. You have a right to national pride. I think you should restate your feelings openly on your journal with all the reasons why you like being an American and you shouldn't have to hide it.
If someone wants to contend that, just tell them it's great to have national pride (including their pride about their own culture) and you aren't dismissing other nations--each nation has good qualities about them. It shouldn't be a contest and you shouldn't have to be embarrassed.
Sometimes people blindly follow other people's opinions. Once you challenge them and they don't have solid reasons to support their claims, at times they can be made to see the light. XD And if you can't convince them, at least settle on neutral ground.
146. I am sort of glad you posted this, at the same time I don't completely agree. I DO believe people should find their own style, but when someone is young and new I think most people's first attempts come down to emulating someone else's style. Age and experience is a factor.
If they are serious about art eventually they'll go to school and be forced to learn some basic anatomy, grow out of imitation and develop their own style from then on.
People who copy other styles and rely on tracing all the time irk me something bad. And you're right, when it gets to be really popular, it just makes the irksome into RAAAGE.
153. Heh, keep hoping.
156. Welcome to the world of fanart, where at least 50% of the time it's a rip-off of a rip-off. There isn't much that can be done about it but to expose them until they start being honest about it.
Maybe we can start a revolution. :o
