Poll: Do you see Marten and Dora's relationship lasting?

<< < (16/24) > >>

Doug S. Machina:
I think there's still people who stay together for years. It's probably wrong to think "Well that's Marten and Dora sorted forever" but they seem stable. Even the potential drama to come may not rock them too much. It probably will to a some interesting degree, though.

Re: Spiderman, I read the I-Mockery piece. I'm not even that much into comics and I think it was bad to the power of awful. Explains reations like this.
On the other hand, I discovered I-Mockery.

Also there is another fact to ponder: nowadays there are no more couples that last a lifetime. I think a couple is lucky if they get past a year.

'No' couples last a lifetime? Are you really that pessimistic? That's just not true. Not every marriage ends in divorce, our society hasn't got that rubbish at commitment just yet.

And to the question...

I think that Dora and Marten will stay together for a while, although things might get a bit rocky. I reckon Marten will get a bit mopey about the fact that Sven and Faye are together when/if they find out, but he'll want to stay with Dora. And even if Dora tries to break up with his so that he can have the choice I think he'll stay with her because he said he would, and I believe Marten (unlike most people... strange that. I have more faith in a cartoon character than a human...).

frullic:
Don't blame the high school smartass for saying what he sees.

Some of these posts have me thinking of the lyrics for "The Things We Do for Love" http://www.lyricsdomain.com/27/10cc/the_things_we_do_for_love.html, but I think they're essentially correct, with one caveat: Dora and Marten, if they can survive this latest bit of drama, will last. It's going to test some basic problems of both: Marten's ability to get past any natural resentment he's going to feel (and, by extension, did Marten really 'settle' for Dora? I don't think so; I think he'd have thrown Faye over for Dora eventually. But whadda I know?) and Dora's getting past her massive insecurities (any girl who freaks about her boyfriend's new haircut like Dora did, she has them).

JoeMoron2000:
I think not.  Dora's crazy about him, but she's also crazy in general.  She freaks out too easily, and while she lets Marten draw on her back, I think that she's still going to accidentally find another reason to get hysterical.
Especially with this new development.  I predict that Marten will try to comfort Faye, and Dora's going to go nuts (both at Sven for sleeping with Faye, and Marten for trying really hard to make antoher girl feel a lot better about herself).  If it manages to last through this, though, then my god, Dora's got the willpower of a saint.
