Some people just can't manage someone is better than them, huh? :/

There is a very strong very saddening undercurrent of insecurity and jealousy that's like omnipresent in Mark Millar's stuff

And it invariably has to do with some aspect of masculinity.

This happened to me once. A girl I was dating broke up with me because she claimed I was "too good to her". She said there wasn't enough "push and pull" In the relationship. I just assumed she had her eye on someone else, and couldn't find a good enough excuse to break It off. I laugh about now...hell, I laughed about It as It was happening.

While I understand the annoyance of a perfect person, I dunno. Life is such a damned struggle that I wouldn't mind part of my life without stress or problems. I'm afraid Mrs. Sheldon will discover that she will be subconsciously measuring every man against her former hubby and they will inevitably come up short, so to speak, in many ways. And I'm betting that Sheldon has SOME flaws if she looked hard enough.

Heck, even Superman had/has flaws, depending on the writer. Admittedly different ones to, say, Batman on a good day, but still has some things which lead to awkwardness. Like how the DCAU version had learn to delegate tasks to other people, as he felt that, being Superman, he should do everything himself in order to keep other people safe... even when those other people are in fact people like the Flash, Wonder Woman etc.

Exactly! Clark has his flaws and I'd bet Sheldon has, too. She's just dazzled by all that surface perfection! ;)
