He suspected that his attachment to Galana was only due to her being the first real girl he spoke to. She was imprinted in his memory as the first girl he really met. On top of that, she was very knowledgeable and he liked to tease her. Even back then before his two souls bloated so much that his emotions got throttled, he had a lot of fun annoying her and watching all her reactions. He didn't know if this was true love or just strong attachment he felt for her. It wasn't quite love but noting else either, a sort of attraction. Maybe he liked her reactions and knowledge more than the girl herself?
