LOL! I knew someone would tell Nightwriter "You deserve a better man than I..." eventually.

I'll say it again, it's a very mature comment.



It's not a statement about his own worthiness, or placing anyone(least of all Miranda) on a pedestal. It's a statement about the kind of person Ms Lawson IS.



A better man perhaps would look past all of her BS and manipulation. He'd have to.

Still chasing me through threads for a good flirt, I see.

Tease.

Now you see if you tried to hit up another girl after she'd just heard you say that to me you'd be faced with this:

See how she's like, "What the...?"


DANMMMM... she's astonishing. Is that you Night? WOW.

I know it's not you. You probably have glasses broken and tied in the middle and zits... ewww (because your a computer/gaming nerd, get it?).

Didn't notice. I would have had to talk to him to hear that.

It's just a terrible romance through and through, IMO.

No. He says it anyway. It's at the end of the debriefing in the comm room after his loyalty mission.

I definitely got that impression too.  I don't think that's what he was *trying* to say... as others have posted, I think he was trying to express that Miranda was high-maintanence or otherwise looking for something different in their relationship, not that she was too good for him.
I don't think he was trying to insinuate that Shepard was second priiiiize, but wow, I feel like he really flubbed up his wording.  So while I realize logically that he wasn't trying to be insulting, I still feel a bit insulted on FemShep's behalf every time I hear him say that.

LOL! You remind me of those awkward moments in math class. :P

Yes, of course and obviously you have to talk to him to get his loyalty. But I was referring to the scene itself -- the scene in which he says that. He says it anyway. You don't actually have to go to the Armory and talk to him in order to get the line of out him.

Well, that's just silly. Wombats are marsupials.  Now, if a nice, respectable placental mammal like a badger did it on the other hand...

Alas, that is not a picture of me. Though I'd dearly like to know what was just said to that woman before the photo was taken.

And I unfortunately have no broken glasses or unsightly disfigurements. I know, how will I ever attract a geek mate?

But he's saying she needs a better man. That directly addresses worthiness.

No, it vaguely implies worthiness.

It could also imply any of the other interpretations listed in the thread.

If he wanted to directly address worthiness, he could have said "She's too good for me." He didn't.  It's a subtle but important distinction.

Could it just be a poorly-worded statement, by any chance?

Perhaps he means that he's not the right man for her.

You make sense, without implying any extreme or negative evalution on either party.

Your evolution of sensibility must be stopped.

I as a man thought the opposite. Given that I've used that exact phrase before, I thought the he was saying she needs someone more whiling to put up with her BS.
