Oh, Sven ...
jeph:
He didn't.
Surgoshan:
He gave up on casual sex after Faye confronted him about it. He tried to apologize and then got mauled by the vespavenger (though we didn't know it was her at the time.

Later he turned down sex from a bottle blond of previous acquaintance in Faye's presence.
The sequence of events was, Get hit on and compare it to opening a bottle of hooch in front of an alky. He tried to back out of it and then Faye showed up and gave him an easier excuse. They have a genuine conversation.
In short, Faye told Sven he was a jerk. He agreed, did his best to change. She told him he was a jerk. He agreed, and changed some more. They started hanging out a lot and pushing eachothers' buttons, then she initiated sex. Sven, seeing it as a genuine relationship, for once, was ready to take it to the next level... and then Faye blew him off.
Which would have been fine! He would have gotten over it, she would have gotten over it...
Except that she shows up to hang out and the fuck. And fuck. And fuck.
It has become, de facto, a relationship. She told him, point blank, "You sleep with someone else and I'm gone." He played it flippant, but it's apparent that he's regretting where this evening has gone.
Why is there drama? Because he wanted more, but she pulled back. He pulled her in. She wasn't willing to accept less. And now he's fucked up.
That's drama. And, oddly enough, it's realistic.

Guilty? All righty...I sentence you to an eternity and a day of writing and drawing comics you want to, in complete disregard of the silly and ignorant masses who somehow "get" the "message" you are allegedly stuffing into online entertainment.
Me, I just like reading the comic. I have my own issues with the characters but that's WHY I read the comic. As a writer myself, I understand the irritation involved with the "passengers" trying to tell the "pilot" how to fly his aircraft.
Pilot away, Jeph. I'll be back here in Coach class, snacking on peanuts, enjoying the ride.
And to keep focus on the whole "Oh, Sven..." thing:
Thanks again, Jeph. That scotch wasn't gonna drink itself. Hooah!
