Maybe he used to be like her himself?

What bullshit? All there's really been from Marigold is the throwaway gag of not tipping him for being Alliance, and now this. All the rest of their little 'feud' was generated by Dale. Marigold's real problem is that since Dale showed himself the bigger man and tried to bury the hatchet, she's been unable to adjust. Since she got up this morning she's been behaving like the feud was still going, which I admit makes her look like pretty childish.

As for Dale, does he really care? We've already seen him walk straight past Marigold today. He didn't want to go out to dinner with Marigold, but Momo forced them. I doubt he's going to lose much sleep over the fact that Marigold doesn't like him.

They're holding her to her actions. Even if she's doing it because she's insecure that doesn't make everything ok.

Especially how it was portrayed. She had a voice of reason, but wouldn't listen. She wanted Dale to have ditched her or she wanted a excuse to ditch him.

Its not judgmental to recognize that someone is making huge missteps and the entire reason for it is ignoring all evidence to the contrary of their preconceived notions.

Pretending its all OK for someone to act like that because they were bullied in the past is just letting cycles of behavior continue indefinitely.

i don't remember, was it ever stated in the strip that she had been bullied, or is that just an assumption by the readers.

Oh, I agree that she misstepped. I was referring to people throwing around words like 'jerk.'
