Yep.  An ex-roommate of mine got into a poly triad with a fellow she liked and his wife, both of whom were supposedly open to such things.  Turns out the wife was not so honest with herself; she only liked the poly/open aspect when she got to pick the fellows who entered the relationship, not so much when he met someone else he liked.

The ex-roommate is now in a committed married relationship with the fellow.

This can only end in Bourbon.

I hope so.

ThatGuyYeah:
As I already said in the WCDT thread, I am putting 100 bucks on this prediction:

Dora and Marten will get back together at Henry's wedding.

This isn't my personal feelings about the relationship, I just see a good bet when I see one.

zeteginara:
I will say this:  I think Jeph has perfectly captured the feeling of a breakup.

Moreso: He's captured what it feels like to be dumped for a crazy reason... and when the girl has already made the decision without you, and there's nothing you can say in the conversation that follows that will change her mind.

Dora's issue is very realistic, and the thing is, will Dora still be having that issue a year from now?  5 years from now?  Doubtful, and because of that, there's a lot of potential for Marten and Dora.  Marten probably sees that, and he could probably bring that up for discussion, but he wouldn't get any answers, and he'd still get dumped.
