WCDT strips 3681 to 3685 (19-23 February 2018)
swapna:
I like May! "You're both idiots" is the best summary of the last few strips. Okay, second-best because "you're both fucking idiots" would've upped the curse quota.
It's big of her, too, since Marigold tried to stop Dale from having her as a roommate, because of, again, her jealousy. May immediately read the situation correctly there, too, come to think of it.
tut21:
Why am I supposed to care about Dale and Margiold again? He's immature and she's worse. Next subplot, please.
TheEvilDog:
Because of character growth.
Yes, they're both acting like idiots, but through this they should learn how to act like adults.

Would you rather they be well-advised? What story points arise from a happy relationship?

To play Devil's Advocate; Anything involving mutually incompatible objectives or values. Issues where, even though something is perfectly communicated and understood by both parties, is still a cause for disagreement. Or personal vulnerabilities that are only an issue because the love of their partner forces them to come further out of their shell and develop as a person.
Moving in together when one partner needs to resolve losing the feeling of independence, but do so because the feeling of closeness outweighs it. Gift shopping. Hearing a mutual friend badmouth/gossip about the partner behind their back and being unsure of whether to tell the partner, which would make them unhappy for knowing, or keep the secret, so as not to harm the friendship and to not put the stress on that partner's shoulders.
House hunting. Developing a skillset together but one partner learns quicker than the other. Getting a pet. Working up the courage to propose, and figuring out the best way to do that. Working up the courage to admit to having a kink you've never admitted to before because you want to try it but are really embarrassed.
One partner is working on a really stressful long-term project and the other is helping them work through it, and they're only capable of working through it because they have that relationship to support them through it.
Secretly learning poetry to surprise the other partner with, and doing everything possible to hide that embarassing secret until they're good enough that it's no longer embarassing.
EDIT: CAN YOU TELL I WAS WORKING THROUGH WRITERS' BLOCK RIGHT NOW?
