From a few weeks before the breakup:

Well, Liquor and some recreational drugs can fix that......
tomart:
What if this is Tai exposing Marten to all those available Smifettes, like I hoped would happen by now? The Dora angle just makes it more dramalicious; what if Dora sees him surrounded by eager beavers? Maybe Tai thinks that would get her off the guilt hook... This party could have 13 kinds of drama, boosted and complicated by recreational substances. :psyduck:
--- Quote from: BlueMark on 25 May 2011, 21:43 ---Tai ... is looking for approval from Marten, but doesn't realize that as a guy Marten is immune to nuance and needs to be asked simply and directly without any circumspection.
A two by four might help.
Marten is a reasonably smart and sensitive guy, but guys get confused by circumlocutions and indirect questions - they know something else is going on, but have been burned enough times not to even try to guess, so they just go with the most literal interpretation.

This is retreading old forum ground, but many of us guys readily verify this; it's SO nice your brains are at home processing devious, indirect, vague hints and concealed intents, but the genders really do think, feel, and talk differently.* Just say what you mean, please??
* I could provide a bibliography if you care.

An excellent objectification!
--- Quote from: Grantzilla on 25 May 2011, 22:05 ---My disgust (and yes I chose that word very carefully) with Tai's behavior...
--- End quote ---
Again, I imagine a lot of the animosity against Tai in this instance stems from unhealthy controlling and possessive expectations in relationships. All the more evident here, since Marten and Dora are no longer in a relationship. People should move on, and stop theorizing about whether or not Marten's manhood will "quiver" at the thought of his ex ending up with a friend.
Especially since that kind of erotic fanfiction is not tolerated on these boards!

First of all: Thank you :evil:
Second of all: I use the word "disgust" because I'm not angry, sad, disappointed, or heartbroken. I'm just kind of queasy about this whole thing. If Tai and Marten were just friends, it probably wouldn't bother me nearly as much. But the fact that they actually work together closely in a "professional" (and I use the term loosely) setting makes it kind of a double no-no in my book.

Like when Bullock dated Haley on American dad.

There was a time-skip, don't forget.
