Hm...I bet so, self-sabotague goes hand in hand with massive insecurities. I bet Dora's never had an adult relationship and doesn't know how to handle them (adult in that there's compromises and both sides communicate even negatives with one another and disagreements are discussed openly and honestly and both sides acknowledge some fights are both people's faults, boundaries are respected, etc etc - those kind of relationships are REALLY FUCKING HARD and take a lot of work. And I'm not saying Dora isn't willing to work, I just don't think she knows how. She's so used to relationships being almost simplistic - he's the asshole, she's the naive innocent, he yells bitch, she yells bastard and that's it, there you go, the end.
But with Marten, he is not like that, and I think it scares her, and I think it does because she's starting to become convinced she's going to do something to fuck it up. So she's throwing the first salvo - I mean how terrible would it be to be in the first good relationship where your bf is NOT the asshole, and YOU'RE the one that ends up fucking it up? Sometimes it's easier to be in a relationship you don't care about, because you're not risking anything.
Maybe that's far out there, idk. Just a fun thought.
edit: Son of a hoor, I had a quote in there I was responding to and it disappeared and now I don't even remember what it was or who's it was or what it said (work is distracting...)

People've been gaga over bloodsuckers since at least the first Lugosi/Browning effort, if not the play or dear old Brahm's novel itself, and she managed to offend quite a few of them.

Don't forget Ruthven.
Anyway, Marten and Faye are going to have an... awkward... talk, if not tonight, then tomorrow night, after Dora's shown up at work.
...actually, where does Dora expect to sleep? On an independent coffee shop's margins, hotels aren't going to last her long...

Sven's couch maybe? This could lead to him having a frank discussion with her.
