Description a derpy self-gratifying comic, for those who miss their ex-friends and ex-lovers.
there are some things I'd change (weird facial expressions, bad writing, rushed ending), but I'd rather just move on and keep these things in mind to do better on my next comic. Your feedback is seriously appreciated~

I think its brilliant, the ending didnt feel rushed at all and the final panel brings it all back into a realistic setting so it doesnt seem to idealized or overdramatized

yeah, there are some weird facial expressions and the subject wasn't fully nuanced, but it hardly draws from the effect this comic has on the reader.
i think it's fine to just move on from pieces sometimes, you shouldn't have to work on something you don't want to anymore.

and i've felt this way with friends before (people changing, thinking you want to be ignored but not really), it was very easy to empathize with this comic- so really well done on that front. you got her emotions across nicely, especially with certain close ups (i really like the one on the lower half of her face).
and it is something that, ah, has to be dealt with. you can't run away from everything.

(and of course, your beautiful art makes this so enjoyable as well!)

Just to count the times it has felt like this. Mostly with old childhood friends. But the scariest part is when this happens in your own family. And it's always, always sad... T.T

You drew this so perfectly The leaves, the colours, the people... Wow! <3 (and what are you saying about bad writing or expressions?! I didn't notice any of that, it was great the way it is!) and of course the story. (:

"there's this other guy who wears his face - a stranger who knows all of my secrets"
I loved that line. Not only because it sounds nice but also because it's so true and very scary when you think about it.

The art style was great, and the story had that mild point of bitterness, not too overdone, to be effectively moving. Nice work!

The style you're playing with in these comics is fascinating. This one looks rougher yet cleaner (than the last comic) at the same time, which is an interesting mix. Yeah I kinda agree the expressions (I think you could improve the profiles if you have the eyes not too close to the edge of his nose and the mouth not too far past the eye), writing and ending are a bit off with this one, but as far as improvement, I think you're portraying dudes much better and the point you made about a "stranger with the same face" was particularly praiseworthy.

Keep it up!

weird facial expressions? bad writing? rushed ending?
more like: Stupendous facial expressions, flawless writing, perfect ending.
This is absolutely relatable, it brings a couple tears to my eyes.
