Hypothetically speaking. ‘ if someone wanted to start drawing at a teen age do you think she or he would as good as the people who worked their whole lives’

I don’t think people fully realise that “teen age” is, how do I put it, Young As Heck? 😭 I understand (and remember) that living for like 12-18 years feels like A LOT, but in a grander scale of things it really isn’t. 25 is young. 33 is young.  So If you do start at a teenage age, you have SO many more years ahead of you, I wouldn’t really be worried about not drawing since you were, say, 5.  It helps, yeah, but it shouldn’t stop you from starting something! No age is too old to start Anything you’re interested in!  Life is (ideally) quite long. There shouldn’t be a certain age you pass and think that, no, I am already too old to start learning that, you aren’t! Life is for learning new things, regardless of ones age^^ And also, there Always will be people better than you at something. There are plenty of 16 year olds with much larger potential and art predisposition than me. Already, so much better than me even if *technically* I had like a 10 year old early start compared to them. There are plenty people my age that aren’t as experienced at art as me. Regardless of your age, it will always go both ways. You will always be better than someone at something you do, and worse than someone else, just because...there are just so many people and it’s just how it works. So I don’t think that comparing yourself (with no experience in drawing) to someone who has been drawing for a long time (and most likely started as inexperienced as you) would be a very healthy approach.  I’d definitely say don’t let your age stop you. Whatever it is. It’s never too late to start something and I Sincerely Mean It. 

I am once again enamored with the idea of simple domesticity, so here are some ideas/prompts that y'all are also welcome to use <333

Coming up behind A while they cook/clean/whatever and B wrapping their arms around them

Brushing/braiding/fixing their hair as they read a book aloud

Adjusting their clothes

Laid out on the couch together, watching something or reading, just generally close but not necessarily focused on one another

A can't find something they're looking for. They call out to B for help and B comes around the corner with it, kissing A on the cheek as they say where it was

A cuts their finger. B sits them on the toilet lid as they clean it and bandage it, and press a kiss over it. (Bonus is A asks "Will I live, doc?" Extra bonus if B teases them about needing to amputate it before the infection spreads)

Teaching the other something they know really well, like cooking, sewing, how to fold a shirt, etc

B has to get up and get ready for work, but A just pulls them closer for cuddles

Sitting on opposite ends of the couch but A has their feet in B's lap and B massages them, especially if A has to walk around a lot

One of them starts to get up when the baby starts crying, but the other stops them and gets up instead. Bonus if they don't return and are found fast asleep in a chair with baby on their chest

Singing and dancing around together

A remembering after B gets back from the store that they needed something, but B noticed they were out and already grabbed it

Feeding each other bites

Celebrating their different cultures together

A falls asleep on the couch. B tucks them in or squeezes onto the couch with them for the night

A napping on the couch when B is in the living room because they feel safer with B there

Running baths for each other

Having "bath dates" where they take a bath together with glasses of wine on the side

Folding laundry together

Having a unique way to find each other if they get separated in a store (whistle, Marco Polo, etc)

Surprising each other with flowers or knickknacks for no reason

Going to a toy store together when they don't have kids just to play with the displays and make fun of crappy new toys

Having a specific routine to going to bed, specifically how they say goodnight (Kissing foreheads, kissing a finger and pressing it to their lips/nose, etc)

Unique ways of saying "I love you", especially if one has a hard time saying it (tapping them, holding their hand, alternate phrases like "I like you a lot")

This went on way longer than I thought it would. Feel free to add any more you can think of or ask for clarification if I explained something poorly :)
