"When hugging a member of the opposite sex, never be the first to let go."
--- End quote ---
My compulsively logical side snarkily noticed what would happen if everybody practiced that rule. If nobody's the first to let go, then the hug lasts forever.
Not that there's anything wrong with that in theory.

Your theory sucks balls. I'm going to go take a wicked dump now.

Of course someone needs to move - there's that whole heart beating and respiration thing that needs to keep happening.
Oh wait, you meant that either Angus and/or Marigold need to alter their living arrangements. :roll:
No, that is not an emotionally mature method of dealing with life - something will be awkward, time to avoid it. If they had been co-workers rather than roommates would one of them had to have change jobs?

I totally agree. If Angus ever brought somebody home, (which would be a completely normal and acceptable thing for a 20-something to do) there would be another long fortnight of watching repeated weeping and dramatic self-loathing by Marigold. I understand it being a touchy situation at the moment, but really in the long run Angus should NOT have to be accountable for her, making an eventual move-out the best option. He shouldn't have to feel bad for being interested in someone else, and living with someone who has feelings for him would cause that precise situation.

Nor will Angus need to be accountable for her. Marigold will get past this, with his help and the help of others, and yes things will be awkward occasionally. Doesn't mean it can't work out. Like a single parent introducing a new partner to the kids, it may or may not be handled well, but people deal.
After alll, there have been weirder situations. Anyone remember Meena and Dave?
