They arent as deep so they dont hurt each other as badly when they fight. They laugh off and share misadventures. I can see movie night at Audreys. Ken sits through a dopey romance because it reminds him of so many similar nights with Deirdre. abbykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808858897096902157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-48434409108711692922016-02-02T13:38:48.714+00:002016-02-02T13:38:48.714+00:00Nay - they are much better off as friends.

Ken is way too wrapped up in himself to do any of this. His pompous self-centredness was funny with Dierdre--she loved to throw it back in his face; it gave their relationship a real spark.
