It is disrespectful to the feelings of the person you're pursuing. You are effectively saying you don't respect their feelings for their partner and are only interested in your own wants.
Plus Sven is being hypocritical since he has stated outright that he doesn't intentionally pursue women who are already involved.

And Dora all but went after Marten while he was after Faye. I honestly think she is just as guilty of major relationship BS as Sven. Someone pointed out earlier that Dora has more in common with Sven then she wants to admit, and I think that truer words haven't been spoken on this forum.

Only because Faye will think that Dora is making a bad decision.

Idk, I could see Faye beating up Dora for bringing more stress into Faye's life at what is already a stressful time.
--- Quote from: Tova on 25 Aug 2014, 23:49 ---Given that Dora's attitude towards her brother has been much the same throughout the comic as far as I can recall, we can only assume that there is a lot of history that we are unaware of. Or you could assume that there is none, and that Dora is simply a terrible person. Depending on which person you personally prefer to hate. :-D

Again, if there is some history we are unaware of (the comic has gone into Dora and Sven's childhoods possibly more than any other characters except Hanners) Then this is just bad story telling. For something to suddenly be presented now, with no foreshadowing, is sloppy.
I don't think Jeph writes anyone to be a "terrible person". Prior to this arc he has been masterful at writing evolving characters who make mistakes and then grow. I can see Dora deciding to cut Sven out of her life and then being talked out of her decision by Sven/her therapist/Marten as a plot possibility. What is ruining it for me is that it follows so closely on the heels of Sven acting out of character.

And now Dora is trying to avoid the ass kicking that Faye will give her.

She is using Faye and Sven's situation, which Faye nor Sven have said word one to Dora about, to cut Sven off. Faye might be an ass to people, but she applies it evenly. Everyone gets shit. And once Faye finds this out she is probably going to go thermal on Dora. Faye already threatened to kick the shit out of Dora once, and I can see this bring the breaking point for Faye.
And as an aside, Marten needs to stop being an emotional tampon for the women in his life.

How is she adding more stress to Faye's life? How does cutting off Sven affect Faye?
