Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for October 03, 2015

come on nate!

This makes me sad, because I know that even if she claimed the age difference didn’t bother her, it would eventually get to her, and Nate would be even more hurt.

she never said It was bad though

Soo is this going to continue next week or is it the current end of this story? Since it was allready stated there would be more twists to it, as such this is in no way the end of their relationship. Anyways shame it had to be the “sitting in silence” ending for now.

Stay strong son.

ye, there might be yet another plot twist

Thing is, all of Nate’s previous girlfriends had a rocky start, so this might not be the end for Trudy.

A brief history of Nate Dates:Girl #1: Angie. Meets Nate in summer school, where he lies about being a tutor. She gets over it and they start dating. Shares many interests with him. She eventually breaks up with him when she falls for another guy.

Girl #2: Kelly. Met Nate at soccer camp. Goes to Jefferson Middle School. While dating Nate, she gets a cat, offers him figure skates, and reveals she likes egg salad (I think). Nate eventually breaks up with her on the back of a detention slip because Jenny is available. This infuriates her. She has not been seen since.

Girl #3: Trudy (Gertrude). Met Nate on a fair ride. Met up with him again at school. Finds out her name and that she’s in seventh grade. When she learns that Nate’s in sixth grade, she becomes hesitant, prompting Nate to think she doesn’t like him. Will this romance stop before it even starts? Find out next time!

nate isn’t little, he’s BIG nate!

What, what? Angie broke up with nate?

this must REALLY be true love because the sayin is, "when you love someone, let ‘em go. " NOW the question is, will Trudy come back for Nate? If she does (PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEEEASE) that means she loves him, even though he’s younger. If she doesn’t, (NO, NO, NOOOOOOOOOOO) that means she doesn’t love Nate back. Also, i don’t think there is true love between Nate and Jenny, ‘cause Nate can’t let Jenny go. And when he does, Jenny doesn’t care. NOW NATE’S FOUND ANOTHER GIRL AND I REALLY HOPE THAT TRUDY CAN MAKE UP!!!!!! NATE NEEDS something GOOD IN HIS LIFE! He’s got nothin’ but bad things ( except Francis and Teddy. ) He’s got:

A.Mrs. Godfrey (I seriously shouldn’t have to explain her.)

B. Gina, the stuck-up snob who is the TOTAL OPPOSITE of Nate AND his arch-enemy!

C.Jenny who DOESN’T LOVE HIM!!! How could you, Jenny

D.Detentions, oooh…tsk tsk. Girls may like “bad boys” but a world/school record of seven detention slips? That might go on his perm. record.

E.Mr. Wright (Nate’s dad). The snoring, overweight, bad-joke-telling, father-of-nate is not the greatest guy in the world. Plus, he keeps telling Nate to be healthy and HE’s the one who’s, you know.

F.Ellen Wright. Self-centered. Annoying. Horrible-excuse-for-a-sister Ellen Wright. (there could have been more descriptions but this comment is already long.)

G.The worst of all:Trudy. She DUMPED NATE just because he’s a YEAR YOUNGER! UGGGGGH!!!! I’M PULLING OUT MY HAIR BECAUSE OF YOU, GERTRUDE!!!!!!

…but now, I’m sitting next to my rabbit, and I can never feel mad or sad aroud her. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :):) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

C’mon! Nate deserves a break and a girlfriend.

“….because, Nate Wright, seventh-grade girls don’t go with sixth-grade boys.” (with apologies to F. Scott Fitzgerald. original: Daisy explaining to a broken-hearted Jay Gatsby why she destroyed their love by marrying someone else: “…because, Jay Gatsby, rich girls don’t marry poor boys.” Heartbreaking.)

Do whatever makes you happy Nate.

and curl up with your Teddy! (Thoughts of Radar)

:,( I’m sorry Nate… it’s okay to be immature in 6th grade… and blankets are nice. (better than Trudy!)

Nate is showing his maturity by walking away on his own terms. If she comes back to him and says it’s not that big of a deal after all, so much the better. He didn’t wait to get outright rejected. He is chasing her until she catches him.

She didn’t bail Nate. She was just taken by surprise. You didn’t give her a chance. Fool!

If Trudy is smart, and I think she is, she’ll run after Nate…

I fully understand Nate’s frustration. They “click”, he thinks he’ll never see her again. Then she shows up at is school and he’s ecstatic. But she is hesitant. Why should he wait until she rejects him? If she was as interested, she would not be hesitant.

This is my first commit on a comic!

Awwwwwww . . . poor little guy! Wish I could give him a great big hug right now!!!!! :-(

Maybe the thought of hanging with “an underclassperson” (sounds like Orwellian Newspeak, that!!) never really occurred to her before today, because she likely hadn’t been confronted with it in “parochial” school?

THIS IS THE MOMENT OF TRUTH

reply me if you are in canada like me

I’m sorry, but the last panel is kind of funny

Incidentally, today’s my birthday.

Poor Nate

i would do the exact same thing, Nate. :(

xD

C’mon Nate, you must not give up hope!

Aw poor Nate!!

Nate is becoming linus

poor nate

boo-boo-bear

poor nate :[

he really is a little kid

Like this because Nate is very sad

I like the part where he thinks about crying into a blankie

We all know that Trudy ends up becoming nates girlfriend. If you don’t, skip to 10/10/15.

Not to burst your bubble, but you were the one that bailed.

Poor Nate. But it’s hard to feel bad for him since he bounces back anyways…

Poll: Angie, Kelly or Trudy?

It’s amazing what trivial things are deal-breakers at that age.

Awwwww… I feel so bad for him.

And there’s nothing wrong with crying into a blankie.
