    Ever since someone pointed out how tiny her shoes are, it’s all I can focus on every time a new comic is posted.

    Seriously though, our dog can’t stand any tension between me and my SO and will try to mitigate it if there is any.

    And he usually succeeds.

    They only thing I learned is that man’s best friend will solve all issues. We truelly do not deserve them.

    This is literally it. If two healthy people can’t work-out their issues together like-so, or rather if the idea isn’t appealing to both, any intimate relationship is all-but-dead.

    Your SO should look good, sound good, taste and smell good to you, or you’re gonna spend a lot of extra effort forcing things to work. Hardly anyone has that effort to spare for any long span of time, and they’ll often revisit a cost/benefit analysis that shames them and creates its own problems.

        Yeah, he thought it was her and didn’t care if the breath was a little off, or more likely didn’t smell it, but either way, he’s the opposite of repulsed at the thought of her touch, no matter how out of the blue or overbearing … pay attention.

        Let’s be real, few women are going to be happy about the skirt-pull either, so these two are particularly into eachother. That’s goals.

        Your SO should be exceptional to you like that, on the order of you not minding if they accidentally got turned-on by the dog, no matter how viscerally repugnant the thought otherwise is.

      God-forbid your wife grows old, you are going to just dump her.

      Don’t bother marrying then, there’s no eternal beauty.

        Oh noes! People are incapable of adapting their aesthetics to changing bodies, how cruel! Someone tell my wife of 18 years before she finally listens when I say she doesn’t need to lose weight for my sake!

        Seriously, are you so far up your own ass that you don’t think old couples fuck? Or just convinced those that do couldn’t possibly have loved eachother as much when they were younger?

        Where did I say shit about “don’t settle for anything but top-shelf?” If women are the ones better at staying attracted to their partners, then what’s up with all the lesbian dead-bedrooms?

        If anything, my advice about not settling was aimed at women, and to men not to settle for being settled-for. Not my fault if you waste your time fretting over all of the lonely or soon-to-be-deservedly-lonely people who don’t even enjoy their own company.

        Or do you prefer everyone treat companionship as a means to an end?

    We don’t like this cuz it feels like they’re only into each-other for sexual reasons and when they have a problem that should be discussed they just huff and puff at each-other until the family dog tugs at them and they have sex which never solves the problem. :/

      I read it as them both failing to stay mad at each other when they think the other is willing to show some cheeky affection, despite the bad mood. It doesn’t mean they won’t work out whatever problem started this, but by the dog “breaking the ice”, they can do so with better moods, working together rather than as opponents.

      So, I think it’s really cute. I think reminding yourself of your feelings for your partner, even when you have a disagreement or miscommunication, is often hard but important.

        I guess but it’s definitely feeling like sexual tendencies being the temporary solution to some core issue. IMO: sex is from loving someone, not the other way around for us (and for our partner too) when we have issues we chat about it.
