Poll: Do you see Marten and Dora's relationship lasting?
skish:
I kind of see Dora dumping Martin in the future. These past strips have only illustrated Dora's insecurity, and her being in a relationship only magnifies it. She seems like a walking timebomb to me. Has anyone noticed that she keeps going off, for example, the haircut incident?
On the other hand, I really don't see Faye and Martin getting together either, I like them better as friends anyway.
Is it cold in here?:
Dora's insecurity seems to run pretty deep, despite her outward self-assurance: see strip 293 for example.
Doug S. Machina:
But if we put together Dora's comments to her cat:
1. The cat always suggests murder.
2. The cat isn't really talking to Dora, she projecting herself onto it.
:-o Has Marten jumped out the frying pan and into the fire? At least Faye just beat him up. If Dora thinks he's going to leave her, he might not make to strip 2000.
Naoko:
Insecurities are normal for someone in a relationship. I don't think she's doing anything overboard that would drive Marty away, nor do I think she would break up with him because of her insecurities - they mean that she does NOT want to break up with him. So, if it's anything like reality, I don't think the insecurities are bad enough to make a bad toll on the relationship. At least, this is in my own experience, and I'm comparing it to reality. I guess in the context of a story, insecurities are maybe intended as foreshadowing instead of a normal thing in a relationship. I don't think they're that out of hand, really. If Marten would act a bit more jealous for some reason, they'd be pretty balanced.
I still want them to break up, though. I'm just saying, I think Dora's insecurities are normal in a healthy relationship. They're far and few apart; it's not like they're occurring every single time they're together. It's something I see in normal people who have been together for a time much longer than they have, and I don't see it as a reason to break up.

I think Hanners is going to overcome her OCD and Steal Martin away from Dora so they can form a two person band that doesn't suck
