Yes. Yes there is.


--- Quote from: plusorminus on 18 Jun 2013, 00:00 ---I'm not sure I'd classify the Tai-Dora coupling as "not long afterward" in regards to the Jim date. The entire Marten-Padma arc played out before Tai and Dora hooked up, and even that took some time to develop. I personally do not like Jim and think he needs to go after some more age-appropriate women. However, I do think that if he and Tai's places had been switched and Tai was the one Dora dated right after Marten, Tai would have gotten the "I'm not ready" speech and Jim would be giving the sweetheart kisses.

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe if Jim had known Dora for years prior to their date and gave her the kind of You Are Completely Awesome speech Tai did he'd have tugged her back up on her feet sooner. Who knows?

Point being, it didn't work out that way and this is his first notification that there's not going to be a second chance for him with Dora in the foreseeable future.

Yes, and it is a little crude, and fortunately for Sam - just a little above her head ATM.

Nepiophage:
In Jim's place I'd want something a lot stronger than beer.  And where is Tai's right hand? Has it something to do with the expression on Dora's face?

Looking for something "low pressure." Or a relationship, I can't make sense outta it.

--- Quote from: Shjade on 17 Jun 2013, 23:46 ---I believe the reason given for that "not to be" was "I'm not ready for a relationship right now" on Dora's part, right?

So while they were never an item, it's still a little bit of a kick in the pants for Jim to see Dora apparently just fine being in a relationship with not-him not long afterward.

You bring up age appropriate when Dora is likely 8 years older than Tai? :psyduck:

Jim, imo, is 40s-early 40s.  Dora is the oldest of "the group" and I'm betting at this point she's 30.

I'm so-so on age difference.  Mostly 20 year old and a 40 year old.  They're just at WAY different points in their life.  I don't understand what "age inappropriate" about Jim/Dora.
