For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for March 17, 2015

Elly and her big mouth…

OMG…

People never forgive you for speaking the truth.

And since Irene is a rebound romance, I wonder how long it’ll be before Ted has an “other woman” on the side.Way to go, Elly!

How can Irene be ‘the other woman’ when Ted was a bachelor?

I think she was avenging her friend Connie, but I’m sure there are more polite ways of doing it. But I guess for Elly, that is polite.

Ellie spoke the truth. Wonder how long will last.

But if Irene or Connie had been stringing along more than one guy, that would have been perfectly acceptable, I guess. Double standard here.

Usually it’s John who makes the gauche comments. It’s a surprise coming from Elly.

Okay, here’s the facts. The last week of December, Ted was over at John & Ellie’s begging Ellie’s best friend Connie to take him back. She turns him down. Less than 3 weeks later on January 17 John announces Ted has married Irene. Okay, it sounds like rebound, but I think Ellie has every right to wonder if he was involved with Irene at the same time he was begging Connie to marry him. Ted had a history of dumping Connie and then begging for another chance.

Yikes!!!!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
