--- Quote from: Ravenswing on 23 Feb 2009, 23:37 ---How many people'd be calling him immature and a user if instead of being poly, he was a hockey player? "Faye, I like playing hockey." "Well, if I catch you around a hockey rink, I'm outta here." "Umm, hey Faye, I played hockey last night." "Then we're through."
Sorry, no sympathy for Faye here. If you demand monogamy, don't hook up - and it WAS a hookup, nothing more - with someone who's openly, admittedly poly. If you do anyway, then make sure you HAVE a committed relationship and you're on the same wavelength. If you don't bother to do that, to the point you tell your friends that the SO's nothing more to you than the ongoing 11 PM booty call, then spare us the "it hurts so much."

Just because she knew the terms of the relationship doesn't mean she can't feel upset when he does something she told him she'd be upset about. Generally, when people are sleeping together regularly, they feel something towards each other, especially when they also hang out sometimes rather than just getting busy. They don't have to be exclusive or in love to have a bond. I don't get where people got this idea that casual sex has to exist in an emotional vaccuum where you can't even give a shit about each other. Casual is casual, sure, but human beings still have feelings.
I mean, the fact that he has trouble enjoying sleeping with Gina and the fact that he feels sort of guilty about it afterwards proves that it's a two-way street. Even if what he did was technically okay, he knew it was going to upset Faye. Doing something you know will upset someone else is your right, but it is kinda a jerk thing to do.
Also, Sven's not poly. He just sleeps around. There is a difference.

A Champion of Khorne suing for peace? The blood god would not be pleased. Pardon my ignorance, but what is the WBC?

I have to. Home country and all. Though Japan is probably going to be tough to beat.
