--- Quote from: stoutfiles on 23 Sep 2011, 05:57 ---I'd feel bad for Marten if he actually liked Padma, but he doesn't. He just thinks she's hot. Most of their interactions have ended awkwardly or leaving Marten with hurt feelings, so it's best it ends now.

He admitted he's infatuated with her. However, our pretty Indian subcontinental friend is so clueless she doesn't realize it. Or only realizes the vaguest outline of it.
I think that Jeph is playing Battleship with our hearts and minds. If only there was a trope that covered what he is doing before our eyes.
Three for one special!

Yes, but why is he infatuated with her? Other than the initial attraction, the comics haven't shown any similar interests, touching moments, etc. Their interactions have been stressful, awkward, confusing, etc. Liking a girl based on looks alone is doomed to fail.

--- Quote from: jwhouk on 23 Sep 2011, 06:21 ---I suspect Jeph decided to take the whole "mirror image COD" to it's limit - the reason why he came to NoHo in the first place ends up being the reason why he can't date the girl who he fell for at tSB.
So I'll go and make a prediction: He ends up dating Renee.

I suspect it's more likely the whole bakery gang is going to be "put on the bus." It would be cool if he'd date Renee, because if she's like Faye as many suspect it would show us how dating Faye would have actually worked, without the complete destruction of their friendship and Faye fleeing back south that probably would have resutled.
With Padma leaving Marten is free to hunt down his real next girlfriend, the girl with the flannel shirt, short skirt, and glasses from a while back. The one who looked a bit like a cross between Faye and Marigold.

Could it be that Martin's attraction comes from the old adage: Men want what they can't have.

You don't need a reason to like a person. You barely need a reason to love a person (though if you want a marriage, you have plenty of other factors besides love to consider), but he likes her because he likes her. She's pretty and interesting. Reason enough to be attracted to her and liking her.

They were delicious!
maddness:
Can I be really juvenile and make a joke about how much he likes her cinnamon buns? Please? :-D
