A Monumental Choice

Her necklace looking like a bear trap surely contributes to that..

May looks so professional in those clothes 😊😊😊

I just realized that Dale is tall – same height as May, who is almost as tall as Bubbles. (Apparently this was already the case in https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4349, I just never noticed it before.)

I keep trying to see May's collar ruffle as a strand of pearls.

GOOD JOB!

I dunno - I feel like I'm out of step with consensus again. Most of this thread is supporting what Dale's doing but to me it's just enabling ongoing bad patterns that MarBear has. I'm not for a second saying he should have called her out in the way that May did but going along with demands for affirmation really isn't going to help Marigold in the long run. Obviously there isn't an easy answer but if I'd been in Dale's shoes I probably would have just gone with "Okay".

At least she is announcing her illogic.

I'm kind of amazed that May is possibly being the most mature one in this conversation..... Go May

There's probably a dial that she keeps fiddling with. And will keep fiddling with until somebody in-universe finally notices.

Do May's tits get bigger every time she's in a new storyline?

May's response isn't wrong, but Dale's is probably right-er.

Marigold's face is at such perfect May's-Boobs height that I hear motorboat sounds when they're facing each other 🥺

Is that a wug on Dale's shirt?

For this being Dale's first relationship he learns FAST.

Dale saw an ex machina to get him out of the doghouse and he grabbed it. With gusto.

Marigold, negative self-talk is bad.

Next up: the steaks will never be higher.

DALE CAN’T TURN HIS NOSE OFF, MAY

dale knows his shit

I'm really enjoying May blossoming into her job and looking swank professional.

Oh I so hate understanding where Marigold is coming from here. 😹

is it okay to just ship everyone all the time? bc i do.

Marigold trying to do her version of the Claire face in panel 2 is hilarious.

See, this is why yesterday was not Maridale's end.

LOUDLY EXCLAIMS

Marigold responding by trashing her own taste in drinks is way too relatable. "Fine I guess I'm dumb and terrible then!" is a hard thing to remove from your self-talk.

Who'd have thought Meganerd and Dorkasaurus would be this comics power couple

Dale understands the game.

Apparently Dale can be taught! We've come a long way from Dale accidentally complimenting his co-worker above his girlfriend!

Dale knows. Also, based on the way the art is going, when can we expect Dale to also get a fuckin ginormous set of mommy milkers?

I was gonna say this is the difference between the reaction of someone who wants to sleep with her and someone who doesn't, but this is May we're talking about.

May still has trouble in realizing when she's won.

Bad cow pun

I require hugs and head pats for being a responsible adult.

+50 Boyfriend Points to Dale for supporting his girl.

Was “praise on demand” a term in the personal assistant agreement? If not, so sorry… 🤔

May in here with that T H I C C Mom energy

Dale understands and supports

She didn't make the crappy choice
