i promise you, whatever you're imagining, you are not prepared for the drawing

My boyfriend (18m) drew me (18f), and I made a joke about it. Now he feels terrible and won't calm down-how do I fix this?
So, | [18F] asked my boyfriend [18M] to draw me a while back, and recently he decided to give it a shot. We've been dating for 7 months. He's not super confident in drawing people and used a dry erase board for it. When he showed me the sketch, I immediately noticed it highlighted a couple of things I'm insecure about-like my shoulders and stomach. But instead of being upset, I found it kind of funny and joked about how he managed to capture all my insecurities perfectly. I wasn't serious, just trying to be playful.
Well, he didn't take it the way I expected. He started apologizing over and over, saying he didn't mean to upset me and that he thought those parts of the drawing looked nice. I reassured him that I wasn't offended at all, but he seemed really shaken by it.
Later, he started panicking, telling me he'd been worryi

I think I know where he got his inspiration.

Celtic chalk drawing (of a man) on a hill.

Hate to be a broken record but, uh, the answer to this one is THERAPY (and maybe an art class)

That's not ok to say you are suicidal when your boyfriend want to end a relationship.

My advice would also be to dumb him if he can’t take mild to moderate criticism.

Donnie Darko “I made a new friend” meme but the text has been changed to suggest that Donnie is the artist from OP’s r/relationship mining. The comic has been extended to show the drawing, and the Therapist from Donnie Darko calls Donnie out for drawing a sleep paralysis demon.

In all seriousness, the artist is only as good as their tools, but it’s a poor craftsman that blames their tools. Don’t draw someone on a white board with a dry erase marker and expect it to be good.

He shouldn't be confident about drawing anything.
