The end for Marten and Dora?
lightwave:
Seen this coming
Soooooooo who thinks Tai will try and have a shot at Dora now? :police:
Magravan:
Maybe this is what Dora needs to realize that it's time to mature a little. Sometimes a bit of time apart is helpful to realize what's of value...
I don't think that Tai will go for Dora... Or if she does, I don't think she's going to get anywhere... Part of the allure of the strip is that it's about friends who get along, not Soap Opera-esque backstabbing and partner swapping...
But then I might be in the minority of people who like Dora, even if I don't like what she's doing lately.
Uniquitous:
All I can really say about this is... DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG.

Doesn't mean it's over, not if he doesn't just cave and has a chance to have his say. Not if other people can get into her head and change the script she's running.
Please remember that there's also a mediator there, named Sven, who may have a grat deal to contribute.
I'm waiting before I nail this coffin shut.

Bullshit, it is definitely over unless Marten's attempt to grow a set of balls the other day failed and they retracted back into his abdomen again.

I disagree entirely. If Marten finally steps up *again,* by saying he's not ready to just let it go, that is not at all, as you so quaintly put up, having your balls *retract back into your abdomen again.* A relationship consists of two people. If one really desire to end it, then it's over. Dora's not giving me that vibe. It's more like, she loves Marten, but she doesn't think she'll ever get over her issues, so she wants to call it quits. She's trying to be a saint. Marten, if he truly does love her, (and he never was able to tell her that, possible foreshadowing), had better not just let her go that easily- otherwise his balls will just "retract back into his abdomen" because he will have, once again, allowed Dora to tell him what to do.

What with his bitterness at the situation and his recent spine growth- I don't think Marten's gonna take this lying down.
At the very least, he's going to tell Dora exactly what's up- whether it's to her face or through a closed door.
Marten seemed too bent at the coffeeshop to let his emotions slide about walking on eggshells around Dora anymore.
I also feel Dora's using this breakup as a defense mechanism- something along the lines of "you can't berate an emotionally fragile person, even if they deserve it."
You know, in a sense-
Dora's insecurity and Marigold's self-loathing are quite similar.
