--- Quote from: Game and Watch Forever on 12 Jul 2013, 10:00 ---While I agree we're pretty much set up for Dale to give Marigold a wake up call of some sort, I can more easily see Dale listening to a couple panels of yelling and then when she's done, he briefly says something along the lines of "you say all this, but you've been the one being a jerk the entire time" and then just leaving her to let the words sink in until she takes the foot out of her mouth and finds it in her to apologize.

But yeah, I see us just getting a glimpse of him being annoyed at the very least... but I'm not so sure about full-blown yelling/anger.

I could see Marigold responding to that with something along the lines of "You're the jerk... jerk."

*was thinking of puns involving the word "jerk", but instead I'll just skip the pun and leave a water feeder bottle for the squirrel.

TRVA123:
I'm just honestly bored with the Marigold/Dale thing. I would be more interested if their interactions progressed to something more mature, actually have a conversation, actually make some sort of connection. But I just couldn't care less about this childish bickering.

I really wish Jeph would bring back focus to some more interesting characters, like Sven or Raven, or Claire, or Marten's Mom. heck, I would be thrilled to see Momo make an exciting new anthroPC friend. Anything but this highschool/sitcom stuff.

Is it cold in here?:
I wouldn't mind seeing more of a character acting like a child, if it were Sam.

TRVA123:
meh, sure. But Sam's childishness is encouraging characters to grow. And we only get small doses of Sam.

With Marigold its two steps forward, one step back. No, maybe a half step forward, and then a half-step back.

I just don't have the energy to care about her story any more. If this were in small doses it might be more bearable, but the Marigold/Dale thing has been pretty heavily featured lately.

--- End quote ---

I think the word you are looking for is oblivious, not insecure.

She seems to be 100% oblivious to the fact that she is treating Dale like other people treated her. She is bitter because people were dicks, yet she is doing the same thing. Maybe she will gain some self-awareness and learn that sometimes people being dicks are just broken and trying to deal with it and it has nothing to do with who you are.

But honestly, with where she is right now, it doesn't seem likely unless Dale shoves it in her face that she is being kind of a dick.
