Sven and Faye's "relationship"

<< < (21/34) > >>

KP:
It really frustrates me that anyone gets mad at Sven in a situation like this. Faye hooks up with him, he wants it to become more serious. She says no, absolutely not, we're just friends with benefits. Sven says "well that's dumb" and states that if the relationship is not serious then he isn't going to avoid looking for someone new. Faye says "No, you have to wait for me and see if eventually I'm willing to stop being a dumb bitch." Why he doesn't ditch Faye is beyond me, but he definitely should. Kind of goes back to me disliking the fact that when Raven is all shallow and doing different people just like Sven, it's funny and cute, but when Sven does it he's an "asshole." Makes zero sense to me. Regardless, I vote random plot twist to get Raven and Sven togeather, the only two characters in the comic who seem willing to just say "Let's not be whiny bitches and be happy with the good lives we have." Besides I'll admit, I have a soft spot for Sven what with his whole "All talent no work" thing, as it's quite like me :p.

Alex C:
The thing about Raven is that nobody knows anything about her relationships. For all anyone knows, they're casual, healthy flings. What Sven is doing is more akin to playing with fire; he sometimes gives the impression that he is all too willing to let people include him in their mistakes. Personally, I wouldn't stay in a relationship in which the other party seems unhappy, but that's just me.

KP:
I dunno, I just don't get how people can get so mad about Sven like they do. He states up front "hey, this is casual" and then when he follows through with that and tells them the next day "yeah, that was just casual" everyone goes "HE'S SUCH A DICK!" Why? For doing exactly what he said he was going to the night before, for NOT lying? I see no problems. I guess the strip has shown that he was somewhat deceptive in the past, but he definitely isn't anymore, so why all the Sven hate? Maybe I'm misguided just because I relate to the guy (though not with the whole ladies thing. Two girlfriends ever, and the first breakup was pretty much "This kinda sucks now" "Yeah, let's not do this anymore" and second is still going)

Surgoshan:
I dunno where Faye and Sven are now.  I know where Sven was at the start.  He found a girl who was willing and able to challenge him on every level he needed to be challenged at.  She hit him emotionally, she hit him intellectually, she hit him musically.

Then she tried to blow him off.

Fact is, she couldn't blow him off because she's an emotional cripple.  He doesn't know that, so now they're bouncing off each other.

He thinks he's playing her, but he's really not.  His supposed playboy-facade is just a buffer (along with her PTSD) that let's both he and her get closer together without really acknowledging it. 

He pretends to be a slut, she pretends to be a prude.  Meanwhile, they both find peace.

Because it makes people like you ask me questions like that.

Yes, and?
