I dumped her - well, she dumped me - anyway, we parted ways a long time ago, but her card keeps cropping up about every 20 cards. I've beaten, seduced, talked to her suitors, now how do I get it across to her to stop bugging me!?

Not always permanent only for those whose murderers didn't have the stomach to do things right. I've killed at least three people permanently in Fallen London so far, and caused a few more to be sent to the tomb colonies permanently. It's utterly ridiculous to suggest that sleeping with the artist logically makes him some undefeatable, invincible phantom stalker who sours all of your opportunities and from whom there can be no escape, while not sleeping with him means he doesn't obtain any superpowers and remains an easily dismissed annoyance. It's just defensive apologism for an annoying loose end that hasn't been addressed yet.

Until you become a Person of Some Importance, there's not really much you can do. Once you do, however, there will appear in your deck a Gold-bordered card featuring the Artist's Model. And then you will have a couple of options. One is to burn all the bridges with her, the other is to rekindle your relationship, possibly making her your spouse if you pursue it. Either one will trim her cards from your deck; you don't have to commit to anything. Just starting the courtship will move her to the Bazaar side streets, and you can just leave her there indefinitely if you want.
Now, the Struggling Artist, on the other hand... nothing you can do there, I'm afraid.

there is one way you could escape the artist without completely destroying your self.....by entering the realm of confusion.

Crap I seduced both of them... why? Why not?
There's no further content written for him yet. Just the one card, with him asking for money, over, and over, and over...
There are people like this in Real Life. The SA is just their equivalent in London. There are consequences to promiscuity.

Not even the sacrifice you make in Eaten's name ala Beau can get rid of him.
Not even Obscurity.

Now, this particular aesop is hardly applicable to everyone. Must an individual be punished just for being a poor judge of character?
Amazingly enough, I don't even remember the Model. I never got an opportunity to get to know her better - she disappeared at some point while I was still involved with the Artist. So much for courting them one at a time. Doesn't it look like FL actually encourages "promiscuity", since it's so easy to miss content if you focus on one out of two, saving the other one for later?

NOOO! Just send him my way! Now that I've had a remote lodging for almost a year I admit that I actually......kind of miss him. Sometimes.
I wish I knew why I find him so endearing :P

Like all City Vices, you can avoid it while living at a Remote Address.
Unfortunately, unless you were an exceptional friend last month, you won't be able to get a Remote Address lodging until Sackmas.

speaking of failed robberies, I've frequently tried to rob the brass embassy, and deliberately fail so it sends me to New Newgate without a criminal record. I say "frequently" because I keep successfully robbing the place, even with odds of success being as low as possible, which is what people must mean when they say "you fail at failing".
