Courting Disaster
Courting Disaster, my weekly comic about sex, love, and relationships updates every Friday. It’s a lot of fun. You’ll laugh your pants off.
This week’s question comes directly from the registration-free Tag-Board: Me and my boyfriend have been together for about 2 years now. Next year I’m supposed to be going away for my bachelors degree.The college is around 3-to-4 hours away from where we live. We don’t want to lose each other, and I’d give almost anything to stay, but there are no schools here that have my particular degree that arent private schools — which I can’t afford. We both love each other very much, but are afraid that being forced into a long distanced relationship would doom us. What should we do?

And while I’m pimping projects, there’s a new Phables updating Monday.

[Panel 1] (At a nearby watering hole...)
Matt the Henchman: I don’t get it! You’re the highest-ranked hench in the biz! What’s got you down?!
[Panel 2] (Argus the Minotaur sighs, sitting at the bar with Matt, drinking beer.)
Argus the Minotaur: sigh I used to hench with a woman. She was… amazing.
[Panel 3] (Flashback of Argus thinking about the past.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): I couldn’t bring myself to tell her how I felt about her because it woulda wrecked our working relationship.
[Panel 4] (Flashback continues.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): When she got promoted, I left henching and just… kicked around for a while.
[Panel 5] (Another flashback, showing Argus sneakily capturing Lightning Lady from behind.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): After years of trying to forget her, I decided to give it one more try.
[Panel 6] (Argus and Lightning Lady sit next to each other, playing video games.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): Now I’m back where I started. I’m henching again, and she’s close enough to touch, but too far to hold.
*Caption: After a brief stint at the Silver Agency.
[Panel 7] (Back at the bar, Matt looks at Argus.)
Matt the Henchman: So… what? You’re just gonna suffer in silence?
[Panel 8] (Argus grins sadly.)
Argus the Minotaur: Trust me. You do not want to hear a minotaur suffer out loud.
