Does my writing style have to be embellished and polished?

I am writing a sci fi, psychological horror novel. I am curious as to what kind of style stands out and gives weight and professionalism to what I write? Or that just doesnt matter at all? I tried to look into j.k Rowling writing style for inspiration, I noticed her writing style isnt really complicated. A 10 year old can read it, imagine it and understand it. She doesnt go ham on complicated wordings like "they intricately pulled the lever from its socket with a force that was only labeled as teamwork, despite their best efforts to remain on opposite sides from each other throughout the whole ordeal" or idk, something like that.

What i am basically saying is that is it a requirement to have a very "professional" way of executing your writing style as opposed to writing in a much simpler way, that still makes you enticed with the story but its a simpler read.

Id love to know what you guys think about this.

How to deal with emotionally lacking/ cold/ unintelligent friends?

How to actually improve such friendships (especially if the perosn in question is genuinely a good person but has the emotional range of a tea spoon) and how to not let it affect me negatively (i tend to appreciate a deep, emotionally meaningful friendships, so this contradicts the way I build a friendship). I am also curious as to what type of upbringing/ events/ traumas that can cause this behavior and mindset.

Original painting, 60×90. Grey heart

I did this one about 2 months ago I think. I had to look into so many different oil painting of old masters about perspective and how to make the atmosphere appear grandiose.

It was NOT easy. Thankfully I pulled through.

The title says it all. This has been happening for a month now. Or maybe 2. I stopped trying to guess since when this happened. Anyone else has this?

I have heard this from people who have experienced this. That they think they are gay/ lesbian due to them being exposed way to early to the world of same sex intercourse before stepping foot into heterosexual sex, and when they did they just...liked it? And grew up with it. Can this be considered a real psychological factor in someone becoming gay? I am genuinely curious about the psychology/ mindset behind this.
