Uh, yeah, I've been bitter about things in relations with people I was in love with. Love doesn't fix things magically bro. And you can still be in love with someone who has problems, even major ones that piss you off.
I'm not really rooting for or against the idea of them breaking up... but your logic here doesn't hold water.

The answer is no. No it does not. He's sick of her shit, but knows she's not fucking mature enough to end the fight of her own accord, so he has to fuckin' do it FOR her. Despite the fact that, as he correctly points out, the whole thing was her god damn fault to begin with. Yeah, it sounds like true love when you have to babysit your girlfriend.
The nail in the coffin would like to be hammered in now.

Though I think you are probably not completely right about the generalization, I know many people like this, people who convince themselves that they love someone more than they do.

Define "in love" for me. Because I think that's a sticking point in this particular argument.

In my experience, you can only get that man at someone who you are truly in love with.
And Marten says he intends to smooth things over.
Of course whether that is a wise course of action remains to be seen.
It really depends on what each of them really wants at this point, but I don't think either of them want to break up, but, the way things are going, they may not be able to avoid it.
Sorflakne:
Anyone else notice that when Dora and Marten are fighting, the comics get posted like...really early? Or is it just me?

BOURBON ALERT! BOURBON ALERT!
This is not a drill!

Not just bourbon. If my eyes do not deceive me, that's Midnight Hobo Faye's pulling out. Is it for her, or to give Marten some Dutch courage? (No offense to anyone reading who's actually Dutch.)
