Given her propensity for throws and holds as well as punches, MMA might be more her speed.
Ever since someone in another thread mentioned a QC fighting-game, I've been unable to shake off the image of Faye as Chun Li (it is probably just as well that I can't draw), but the fighting style is all wrong.

--- Quote from: cuzsis on 12 Jan 2011, 18:26 --- -If the person giving you advice has been married/together for 10+yrs. You may want to consider it. They've got enough experience and wisdom to start seeing past most of the crap.
-If the person giving you advice is giving you advice about what caused them to breakup/divorce. You may want to consider it. They've already screwed the pooch on this particular issue.
-If the person giving you advice is none of these, then only consider it long enough to see if it makes sense and if it doesn't, don't bother about it. They are likely just talking out of their collective buttholes. I'm not saying they're doing it on purpose or to be mean...but they almost certainly don't know enough about relationships (much less the intricacies of yours, which you'll never be able to tell them all the minute details anyway without taking several years to do it) to give good advice unless they hit the monkey on the keyboard just right by accident. :psyduck:

- In all fairness, Veronica and Henry were married for about 10 years before the divorce, that one kinda falls flat on its ass.
- Veronica and Henry divorced because of the fact Henry was gay, so unless Marten ended up following in his dad's footsteps, its two completely different issues, and thus any advice is next to useless in that context. It's like offering a hammer when what's needed is a screwdriver.
- This is about the only point I kinda agree with you with. Veronica is talking out of her own ass. From what I've gathered, Veronica really hasn't a romantic relationship since Henry and to be honest, I can't imagine it would have been that passionate. In fact, a lot of the evidence kinda points to Veronica having a lot of one night stands, pretty much the opposite of Marten and Henry. Pretty much any advice she gives is the same as when Sven tried to advise Wil about Penny and comparing it to teaching a Bedouin how to sail.
And the longer this story arc goes on, the more I wish Henry and Maurice were the ones in town again.....

Sorry, my implication on the first one didn't come through... "If they are *still* married/together and it's been 10+ years." I don't count Veronica on the 10+yrs thing b/c she's not still married. The idea behind that one is that you'd be talking to someone who's seen quite a bit as they've gone down the road and since they are still successful at it, could potentially offer you wisdom.
It's not a guarantee, of course. That person could be a complete moron despite being with someone for 10yrs, but the odds at that point are...you're likely talking to someone who's got something worth knowing.

People don't come with labels, and don't necessarily know their own mind fully. I have seen the fall-out from a similar breakup (reverse the sexes, and factor in three children), and it was not something to laugh about - so I'd suggest you don't in future.

...This is a comic character.
I have no issue with laughing at this predicament, especially given the wharrgrbl that has been going on in this thread. It's levity, that's all.
/you have to learn to laugh at life, even when it sucks
//something I've learned the hard way.

As for real life. I have learned that you have to be able to laugh at it, even when it sucks. Definitely something I had to learn the hard way, but I'm much happier for knowing it now (and yes, I'll laugh at my own expense as much as anything.)
