--- Quote from: Tiogyr on 22 Jun 2011, 03:31 ---Calling it now that Jim is Marten 2.0 with more self-confidence and a career.

Because the way Jim carried on in today's strip is exactly the way Marten would have behaved when things were going well with Dora back when they were dating.

In that case, has Marten learned NOTHING? She's gonna dump him again and again and again! :psyduck:

akronnick:
She's gonna dump whoever doesn't dump her first as long as she doesn't work out her intimacy issues.

She may be fine in the early stages of a relationship while things are nice and breezy, but as soon as she gets close to someone, those little voices are going to get louder and louder until...

NotAwesomeAnymore:
From a storyline point of view, I don't see why she would do all the same stuff she did with Marten all over again. That's an awful lot of time and effort to just say "Dora hasn't fixed her issues" and it's also really boring.

Acutually, Jeph hasn't let us know if Dora has done any work on her issuses.

We've been shown that she went to 1 session with a therapist. Dora didn't 'get' it, but for those of us who have been through therapy, know it was a very good start.

Jeph has always used the concept of 'implied action'; Stuff happens that is not explicitly presented.

So, it has been a few weeks, Dora probably has had an additional session or 3. Let's see where this goes.

Come along and enjoy the ride!

TinPenguin:
Jim seems nice. Dora seems to like him. They are both smiling

I like smiling people.

Go home you bunch of Eeyores. :)
