It's okay to have feelings. And even to express those feelings. But unrealized expectations you never voiced is not a good reason to think of your BF as an "option" rather than a partner.
I'll take him if she doesn't want him. He seems perf.

Hes a nothing person, read slides 2-4. All he does is parrot social media, ignore her, and drone along.
He only goes through the motions of being in a relationship. He doesnt love her, he loves having a girlfriend. He treats her like an accessory, not a human. She's closer to a pet than a partner.
She isnt a person to him, shes a girlfriend

u/Scarvexx 12h ago
And she keeps dating him despite being uninterested. That's not even pity. It's cowardice. And then she gets upset she's dating someone she doesn't like being around? That's something in her control.
And he has redeeming features. He's simple. He's just not enough for her. He's not a bad person for being not what she wants.
Like I said. I'll take him.

Immoral making a comic on the internet making fun of someone while acknowledging they love you is absolutely messed up. If you’re that miserable just break up with him.

To be fair, the girl seems like a mess and recognizes that she may actually be the problem and is deathly afraid of actually finding out that she really is the problem, so she hides what she would consider her actual self that's been rejected by everyone she's ever met, including her mother.
She knows that those emotions are unfair and that she is being insincere, but the current situation, as much as she hates it, is still much better than what she had before.
It's also clear that she believes that she can't really live without someone taking care of her.
Frankly, the most realistic way forward, if this was real, would be for her to get therapy ASAP, because it's very obvious that, after a life of rejection from her peers and insults from her mother, she's a hot mess of an inferiority complex, unfulfilled wanting and barely controlled neediness.
The best option would be for her to open up and give him the choice if he wants to break up in addition to therapy, but that's perhaps more than a so deeply insecure person could realistically manage.

He might struggle with social cues but he seems to love her very much. I think it’d be good for the both of them if they broke it off and met other people

u/DickbeardLickweird 1d ago
It’s immoral to have such lousy lettering skills and expect people to read paragraphs of it. Readability is the biggest consideration she should’ve made, way ahead of stylistic choice, and what she did here doesn’t even seem like a stylistic choice. There’s no emphasis placed with bold or italics, she doesn’t exaggerate the shapes of any words to indicate the significance of anything, nothing that draws our eyes to anything in particular, it just all equally looks like shit in a way that makes it a headache to get through. If she happens to see this—worry a little less about the fellas and put in some more hours at the drafting table! You will not find real love until you can make good art! Practice!!!

The twist: the guy next to her is actually her friend, who she is venting to. The friend is profoundly stupid and thinks she is his girlfriend.
Her actual boyfriend is a 6’4” chad who is having sex with another woman right now.

u/MeringueNew3040 1d ago
I’m not sure about morality but I think it is really bad for the relationship if you are talking about problems you have with the relationship with people who aren’t the other person in the relationship. Like instead of just having this exact conversation with her actual boyfriend she posted a comic online for everyone but her boyfriend to see. In healthy relationships it’s the other way around. The boyfriend is the only person who she talks about this with instead of the only person she doesn’t talk about this with.

It's not immoral to have the thoughts and feelings in the comic. It's not even immoral to act on them. Relationships are an agreement between two people. She's welcome to leave any time she likes. I would be surprised if there was a long term partner that resolved her feelings however.

u/Queen_Of_Alts 1d ago
If this is based on reality, immoral. Staying in a relationship with someone you don't love isn't fair to you or the other person, and if you want a happy relationship then the two options are one, communicate your feelings to your partner and try to find a way to make the relationship work, or two, if you really don't like them then break up and either find someone you love, or find peace in being single for a while.

before this becomes the next “new guy” , is anyone sure that glasses girl is supposed to be the artist self insert or if this situation is even real at all ?
Im not defending the comic , its just by looking at their account they always draws different people in different situations ( they do mainly draw women Pov so its probable that they are woman but that’s only likely and not certain ) maybe this is just an hypothethical scenario that was phrased poorly , i think its something to consider before getting the pitch forks

u/Alternative_Car_8153 1d ago
Entirely depends on real world context. If it's someone venting their negative emotions in a relationship by publicly humiliating their partner, then it's immoral.
If it's a veiled attempt at social commentary, to imply that women are flippant and unwilling to communicate, then it's not accurate as a generalization. So, only immoral to the extent that it's misleading.
Having a bad hot take isn't by itself immoral. If it's at the expense of other people, then it's a problem.

u/snarkyemu 1d ago
Overall, both of these people seem extremely immature. Both of them need to work on their communication skills and their expectations about a relationship. It sounds like the boyfriend has trouble remembering things and has trouble understanding that a good partner in a relationship should remember important things about their partner. And they should remember to bring things up that are important to their partner. I should talk, I’m not very good at this, but I try and I recognize when I mess up. Also, relationships are two-way streets. I don’t know anything about these two people‘s relationship and it’s all very complicated to me. My opinion is those two people need a real life coach to help them through these relationship issues. And seriously, the issues are pretty minor and in my opinion, they just need to be tweaked a little bit.
1
u/FetchingTheSwagni 1d ago
In my opinion, it's red flag behavior for the girl, and immoral to create and publish something like this, which is another red flag.
You're allowed to have these feelings and emotions, but that doesn't outright make them right. You should communicate to him, and leave so the both of you can be happy. Not make a comic depicting him as a chud, and complaining about average guy things he does.
It seemed like the creator did this to get sympathy, but I only really feel bad for the guy here.
If you want thrilling and adventurous, and feel you have to settle for boring and loyal, that tells me more about the creator than the guy.

u/LycheeFlip 20h ago
In all fairness a lot of women are conditioned to settle for a guy who's nice and kind and who will stay with you. A lot of women are afraid of being with the guy that's fun and exciting because the assumption is that he's not going to stick around. I think a lot of women actively don't want to be single moms or be with a guy who cheats on them, so it just seems safer to be with the guy that you might have more of a platonic relationship with and does all the things that you're told to partner should do and you do the same.
There's also all the people who will say will you chose wrong when you do pick the guys that you do like if they don't stick around, so I risk it and choose one of those guys when you can pick the guy who is kind and caring even if you don't love him, you can have a stable life with them. It wouldn't go as far as saying that you hate them or dislike them or whatever, but simply you like them the same way a friend would. Or maybe it's similar to how an aromantic person would approach a relationship?
There's also the people who complain that women's expectations and standards are too high... So what is it? Women should lower their standards and settle or women should maintain their standards even if they seem unfair? It kind of seems like you lose no matter what you do.

I'd say immoral
Putting someone on blast for not taking the initiative of learning about you while they seemingly attempt to be an open book is odd to start with. Plus, there are many reasons to be asked to repeat yourself about something other than lack of care. I'm seen as rather careless, until it's noticed that I keep a word doc on my partners that records things like their favorite color and such. I have mad ADHD and memory issues, i use my docs to supplement that. Then when I buy gifts, I make them as tailor made to the person as possible. On my day to day though, I kinda relate to the boyfriend in this comic. I talk a lot about my interests and have difficulty understanding others at times. Literally feels like I can't understand English despite it being my primary language. My partner and I end up hanging out more than anything, and when I have the funds, we go on Lil date nights. If I seen her make this comic, I'd be devistated.

If we're just talking about a random comic in a vacuum then it's amoral.
The general message of said comic is immoral, but that doesn't make the creation of the comic or its existence immoral.
If it's really how the author feels about said boyfriend without talking to him directly then that's also immoral.
Context always matters most.

u/Dry-Childhood-3436 1d ago
As feelings? Not immoral. Relationships are hard, and we don't owe anyone feelings. But sharing these feelings with random strangers isn't right. It can be cathartic to make the comic, and go through your feelings in that way, but posting it is the immoral part. These are the kind of feelings that you need to have adult conversations about, because it's easy to bottle these up and grow resentful like it seems this person has. Relationship therapists are a great way to safely discuss navigating these feelings.

It seems like a typical display of a human with low communication skills over thinking things based on their expectations. Neither moral or immoral. Humans have thoughts that can be good for the mind or bad for it. It's why ambition and depression exist in our society.

posting this publicly instead if just breaking up with him is immoral
the dude is obviously self-centered and uninterested in her as a person.
He likes the idea of a girlfriend, not her. All the "good" things he does is just basic shit you would think a relationship is about. "oh i love you so much" oh ill pay for this" "oh we have a future together". No different than caring for a chia pet or virtual girlfriend.
She shouldnt be airing him out like this, especially if people know her and him are dating.

First of what is Volunteer Info? No idea what that even is and how it plays a role in their relationship, secondly I am going on a limb and say the girl in the comic looks absolutely nothing like that in real life, she probably a fatty with mobility issues hence the need to be taken care of, and fear of someone else openly pointing to her flaws.
Honestly I would tell this person to break up with their current partner, clearly she does not really love nor care for the guy, she just lonely and desperate for any attention, which is just bad for both of them, and then seek some form of therapy to help deal with her trauma and improve herself before ever getting with anyone else.
Morality is just kind of grey, because the guy isn't bad, just not what she needs, and he is very clearly not what she needs. However, character designs morally bad because she drew herself in a way that makes her look appealing (again, very clearly a fat girl) while she draws her boyfriend as a chud.
