Martin and Dora broke up.

LG, where are you? Hold me.

Chevalier laughingnome · « **Reply #1 on:** November 20, 2010, 01:41:51 AM »

I'm here.

Dora's a bitch. All girls are bitches. Marten is better off without her and he stupid paranoia that all women seem to carry around quietly. Oh, they won't admit it's there, they'll all pretend they're confident and sassy, but when it all comes down to it they just want someone to hold and no mortal man can live up to the delusion years of crappy romance novels, chick flicks and gender sterotyping have instilled in their heads. Girls suck.

Also, I got dumped recently because my ex "couldn't handle a relationship right now". We'd been together three years. So I may, like Marten, also be a bit bitter right now. The above should be read in that context.

I need to date a woman. I hear they are better and more intune with their head.

Superman · « **Reply #2 on:** November 20, 2010, 02:16:25 AM »

Agreed. You know, I didn't like her. When she started hitting on him it felt so predatory. Also, who does that to their friend? Faye should have punched her in the cunt. But then I was all like, oh they're awesome together and they're going to have babies and live happily ever after. Then it turns out she got into this thing even though she obviously couldn't handle it and had to have known she couldn't. Why the flying fuck did she move in with him if she didn't think she could trust him? Seriously!

Chevalier laughingnome · « **Reply #3 on:** November 20, 2010, 02:23:10 AM »

That's just it. She KNOWS she has trust issues. She could have been upfront and said to Marten "Okay, lets talk about stuff before we jump into this." No, she just wants the good life, she wants her knight in shining armour to be totally malleable to everything she does and feels with no soul and raison d'etre apart from being with her. That's not a partner, that's a servant. Total user.

Watch this space. Faye is going to kick the living suitcase out of her for being a douche.

"Boo hoo hoo, boys treated me like shit. Well, I guess that means I get to walk all over the first nice guy that walks into my life." Cunt.

What the shit is this shit about?

Superman · « **Reply #6 on:** November 20, 2010, 05:04:12 AM »

Dora's been an overpossessive bitch for months now and has been going off the handle on Martin over nothing. Once when some girl tried to get his number and he totally blew her off and again when Faye was having boy troubles and Martin was consoling her. It finally came out that all her past boyfriends were jerks and that's why she can't trust Martin. Then Dora and Faye were joking about what kind of porn Martin probably looks at and Dora decided she was going to look on Martin's computer. Martin asked her not to, but she did anyway. Martin got pissed at Dora so she dumped him.

I was watching Music Man today and Mrs. Peroo's line to Marion in 'Piano Lessons' made me think of this thread.

"I know all about your standards
And if you don't mind my sayin' so
There's not a man alive
Who could hope to measure up to that blend'a
Paul Bunyan, Saint Pat and Noah Webster
You've got concocted for yourself outta your Irish imagination,
Your Iowa stubbornness, and your library fulla' books!"

Marion has turned down lovers, in fact she later sings a song about all the men who have courted her, because they aren't what she thinks love should be. Of course, Marion ends up getting with a total scam-artist who lies through his teeth to get what he wants: it's just that the lies he tells are the ones she wants to hear. Is that Meredith Wilson's idea of true love?

Superman · « **Reply #9 on:** November 22, 2010, 03:07:39 AM »

~~No. It's Wilson's very accurate portrayal of that kind of person.~~

*edit*

Wait. No. The point was that all those men were "perfect", but Hill was the man she loved. It's about true emotions transcending the superficial.

Only you would bring up Music Man here. ...and have it be totally relevant.

But it's not anything more than superficial. She's going to turn Hill in until she sees that her little brother has a positive reaction to him and decides that her little brother's happiness is more important than being right. Had any of those other guys got Winthrop to come out of his shell and then proceeded to get her accepted by the society girls she would have jumped on their rythym stick faster than the members of the schoolboard get into an argument.

Anyway... hurry up and upload Monday's comic Jeph!

Not enough progression for me.

Also, Faye pointed out pretty much the same thing you did.

Chevalier laughingnome · « **Reply #16 on:** November 22, 2010, 17:48:59 PM »

We can only get so much story in 4 panels. Though *edit: I hope* Faye is going to say something to her.

Shut up! I'm not a chick. I just... I have something in my eye.

Oh, Hanners. Yeah. I forgot all about Hanners. Who ever would have thought she's be taking this so hard?

Chevalier laughingnome · « **Reply #24 on:** December 03, 2010, 19:37:30 PM »

I think it's a typical reaction from her. I think she's the sort of person who can struggle with change a bit.

Speaking of which, is Marten's mum going to fuck some shit up? Hulk smash!

Superman · « **Reply #25 on:** December 04, 2010, 02:56:53 AM »

Best. Definitely the best. Most honorable intentions ever.

And lighten up on Marty. He was absolutely plastered.

I'm happy now. Caught up on all my reading.

Superman · « **Reply #29 on:** December 18, 2010, 11:18:43 AM »

I don't know. I feel like Martin reinforced al of Dora's fears right there.

Chevalier laughingnome · « **Reply #30 on:** December 18, 2010, 12:33:48 PM »

There is always fear in a relationship because you've put your trust and faith in someone that isn't yourself. But there is a difference in rational fear and irrational fear. Dora is completely irrational, because (as Faye illustrated so eloquently) it will never happen. Marten drank a bottle of bourbon and blew off steam about the whole situation. I can't hold him to that and niether does Faye. Dora hanging off Marten-Faye's relationship, fearing that every little thing would spark them together is nothing short of ludicrous and proved the catalyst to most of their fights.

In all fairness, Martin was hitting on alter-Dora a long time ago.

Chevalier laughingnome · « **Reply #35 on:** June 23, 2011, 20:34:00 PM »

In all fairness, Martin doesn't have major trust issues that screw up a relationship. Why lead some guy on when you know you're not right? Dora's going out with this guy for one thing and only one thing: to feel good about herself. And that's poison.

Superman · « **Reply #36 on:** June 24, 2011, 01:53:02 AM »

I don't know how you can diagnose Asperger's from a still frame of a comically drawn character. I still say you have long brown hair, glasses with frames like Marigold's, and love computer games.
