Sven and Faye's "relationship"
psion:
I would post the quote from Mr. Skawronska, but it is too long to even think about filtering out. So onto my post.
I agree with him that Faye deserves the crushing defeat that is Sven being an asshole and sleeping with some other chick. And it only will help her to realize that she lost Martin. I doubt that the smootching will happen from it, but I think it should. Maybe after a night of drunken revelie. But I do agree for that to happen, Dora needs to be out of town for something. But that won't happen, as her family is in town, and her business is VERY local. Perhaps she got sick or something like that. Even better, a fight would happen. After, Martin and Faye find Steve and his talking booze collection and they get so wasted, the Bourbon Monster is worried. After going home, we wake up and the two of them are in bed naked together. Nobody remembers anything. But I think Faye deserves Martin at some point.

I think they didn't have a serious enough talk about how the "relationship" was going to work before they started fucking regularly. You need to have clear boundaries in this kind of a thing...Sven is clearly okay with it not being monogamous and Faye isn't, so they probably shouldn't have taken it past the initial hookup (and maybe a couple more for good measure).
If I were Faye I would cut it off here and try to move on...now that she's tasted teh sex for the first time in a while and it didn't destroy her emotionally, maybe she can start dating again. Is she over Marten? Meh, who knows.

I couldn't agree more. Faye's too jealous for a "friends with benefits" relationship and Sven can't handle monogamy. The question is whether Faye will realize that if she doesn't end it now, it'll just hurt more later.

I get my jollies on watching Faye reap the rewards she so richly deserves by how she treated Marten.
--- End quote ---
I don't get my jollies but I do think it is somewhat deserved.
--- Quote ---It's no small wonder that I relate to this situation, having had this happen to me recently, only after MY "Faye" got done with "Sven" she came crawling back to me after he moved on to greener pastures. I did not, of course, accept her back, but there were a lot of things I WANTED to say that I didn't.

Good on you for not accepting her back!!!
--- Quote ---Hannelore is DARLING - love her dearly...wouldn't sleep with her, but love her nonetheless.
--- End quote ---
^.^ Agreed. She's a precious one.
--- Quote ---Sven -- I have a buddy, a musician, who looks almost EXACTLY like him, but without his success with the ladies...I'm trying to get him to read this comic so he can see that he, like Sven, can get all the ladies if he'll just be more of a jerk.

XD I love the bitter humor of that last part.
--- Quote ---I also want to mention that I absolutely appreciate the final strip for 2008 to be a verbal bitch-slap for Faye.
--- End quote ---
I don't agree or disagree, but... LOL!
--- Quote ---Faye doesn't DESERVE Marten. Faye deserves heartbreak and misery.

I wouldn't go that far, I mean, you do have to keep in mind that the poor girl's father committed suicide RIGHT IN FRONT of her. It's not like she woke up and her mother was crying, saying "your father passed away this morning", and went to see him with his eyes closed in the hospital. The guy had his brains explode out one side of his head - you're seeing a gross, crude, scary sight, happen to the one you love. And like Jeph said, there was no absolutely DEFINITIVE way to say that somehow, you weren't involved in the reasons leading up to their decision.
I do think that her decision to get into the friends-with-benefits thing with Sven, and then expect him to "devotedly only casually screw one person", was unrealistic.
--- Quote ---Besides, I hate the bitch. She doesn't deserve to be happy; She deserves Sven.
--- End quote ---
I personally think she deserves to be happy, and I WOULD say I'd hope Sven could change and become a more loyal person, but, that's the mentality that gets women into these sticky situations in the first place.
JonSnow:
Mr. Skawronska, you're so right. Faye (and I kinda get the feeling she's the most loved character for a lot of people, dont ask me why. Go HANNERZ) has been working her way into this herself, from the very moment she started jerking Martin around. And having your dad commit suicide in front of your eyes, although it is traumatising, doesnt give you the right to start jerking people who care for you around.
Faye is a cynical woman, that cant really stand to see people happy, because she cant seem to get happy. This is (according to me) her main reason for always being bitchy. She's jealous of the one thing she cant have: happiness. She tolerates it for Marten and Dora, but we all know she hates to see it. Maybe that's why she went running to Sven, to mess with Dora and Marten.
As for her expecting Sven to be monogamous because of her, I'm sorry girl but your too bitchy to expect that from a guy like Sven, not even if you're as hot as most QC readers envision you.

This is going back a little ways, but didn't Sven once announce that he would change his ways after Faye tore into him? If I'm right about that, then Sven might be giving Faye some payback in this last strip. I suspect that there may be a hard lesson coming for Faye.
