This is just so much more of why she'll always draw "female OPL/OPL's perfect mate" comparisons: they want the same things. They want to GET married, with the privileges and perks that entails -- in Pixy's case: marriage, so she has a socially-acceptable excuse to change her surname, which is more of a pain in the ass and less fun than she thinks it is; a house to live in together; and ill-defined "things," which might mean more vintage kimonos to rip the lining out of, who the hell knows. I don't think either necessarily wants to be married, or has genuinely felt that urge to take care of their significant other. (Like Chris playing house with Legos. Jackie gets home from working an actual job all day. Mr. Horse, by the way, is a journalist. It's not as easy as all that. Meanwhile, Imaginary!Chris changed the baby's diapers, which is basically the minimum requirement to avoid having the baby seized by Child Protective Services. But he still expects her to make dinner, and then of course put out. And these are unnaturally quiet and perfect imaginary!children with no problems like, I dunno, autism.)
So any man who wants to be with Pixy had better be willing to talk marriage pretty fast. I'm guessing maybe she and Britf*g had an argument because he declared himself not ready for that? But she's clearly not looking for a partnership in which she provides anything. She wants a ticket out of Mama PT's house, and I can't blame her for not wanting to be the target of a raging, unmedicated bipolar. However, that level of desperation, combined with her unwillingness to do even as much work as a geisha (she won't wear makeup, can't talk about current events, can't play any musical instruments we know of to entertain Mr. Husbando...), leaves her ripe for exploitation by some A-grade asshole lurking out there. I can see a lot of Husbando's rants starting with, "I provide the roof over your head and the food you shove in your pie hole, so you better..." fill in the blank.
