Basically anything by this douche:

What the ... what ?!?
--- Quote from: Barmymoo on 10 Jul 2014, 14:15 --- He genuinely seems to believe that being honest about your feelings will make things work out how you want them to do.
--- End quote ---
Well OK "nice guy" isnt exactly a clearly defined term in the first place, but still I dont see how "being honest about your feelings" fits into any definitions I'm aware of.
Nice guys are typically thought of as people of low self esteem, overly sensitive/feminine, they end up too easily in the friend zone of girls they fancy, they are respectful towards women (at least they think so) while the girls they fancy end up with douchebags, etc.
If theres anything Sven doesnt lack is confidence. And he isnt very sensitive at all, either.

I would bet Faye would get really angry at that point. I think Sven knows that too.
--- Quote from: Kugai on 10 Jul 2014, 15:13 ---And now Svens journey to the dark side will begin.
--- End quote ---
OMG he actually joins a side now ? I dont think so.
--- Quote from: Jazzmaster on 10 Jul 2014, 17:39 --- Something about Faye's rejection isn't convincing. I'm probably just reading into it, but it's really because she said "I have a boyfriend!" instead of "I'm too happy with Angus to leave him for anybody".
--- End quote ---
Why, yes !
I think you indeed definitely do read too much into it.
Faye's version got to the point much quicker then your unnecessarily much more longwinded one.

There is one reasonable justification for him to follow her inside, and that is to ask Dora to step outside with him for a second, and say something to the effect of "I clearly just put my foot in something, and I don't know what. I'm not really in my element here. What did I just do?"
I don't expect him to pull that off, but that would be a reasonable option for him to go into CoD at this time. Otherwise, Sven, go away and get your head right before you do something further down the slope into utter idiocy.
NilsO:
I think the Sven thread is finished - for now. Today's strip was a natural ending. It might be years before we see him again, which is probably a Good Thing.
Next week will be guest strips, which are not canon. I hope there will be some talented contributions.
Main threads that need to be resolved when Jeph is back:
* Will Angus get the job?
* What about Emily and Marten?
* Will May get a job? Will she behave?

A great many that should be sub-titled that, certainly.

Seriously? Could even Sven be so far lost in clueless self-absorption?
