    everyone out here stuck on fucking a dog. Or being fucked by a dog.

    But no one out here is talking about the fact that a relationship is what you make it.

    Now he just needs to find pac man, a ball, some sort of lizard, a handgun, and a few other odds and ends to fill him out.

    Life is complex. Being compatible just requires a partial match. It’s sweet that a piece of him matches up well with another life.

    The notion of there being someone out there who matches you perfectly or completes you is bullshit. Relationships are complex things that require hard work and compromise if you want then to work.

    This is some whiny, self-pity emo cringe and is frankly insulting to people who have made relationships work like the two on the couch who I guarantee you didn’t just fit together easily without the aforementioned hard work and compromise.

    Or it’s just a comic about a fucked up dog.

      What counts is not so much how compatible you are but how you deal with incompatibility.

    I get what this is saying, but I also feel like you can work on yourself to make it easier to connect with others.

      Definitely, at least when it comes to most people.

      While everyone should do it in some capacity, working on yourself can only go so far if you struggle in social situations because of the symptoms of disorders like autism or ADHD. Sometimes the difficulty to connect stems not from a problem with what the person is doing or saying, but others’ perception of it.

      But of course, the types of people they’re surrounded by can affect things a lot, too, especially when there are differences in background, culture, or belief.

    So this dude had multiple pieces missing. Is he planning on having a haram with the missing parts, or is this guy just old school Mormon over here?

        LMAO! Well, they said “soul mate”. I thought, “that’s an odd standing position for a soul mate”! Thanks for clarifying that for me!

      Even without a polyamorous relationship angle, there’s something that resonates about the comic. It’s hard to expect one single person to fulfill every need you may have. Sure, it happens, but I imagine it’s far more rare than we’d like to believe.

      Yk that there’s nothing wrong with polyamoury, it exists outside of Mormonism. The only problem with Mormon polyamoury is that it only allows men to have multiple partners, and the women aren’t allowed to ask their husbands to be monogamous.
