Yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about. It’s great when in a dialogue (in a very personal dialogue) there is an option not to reveal your feelings, but! If you are not sincere or have no feelings, why respond with a kiss? Just for fun? Especially at the very beginning of a relationship.

I think this is completely unfair to Gale, and not to the player. Because the player responds with deception to Gale's sincerity. And the game encourages this.
It would be great if the game made us treat our companions more responsibly.

It seems to me that this “first kiss” would have been very important for Gale, and I don’t understand why it wasn’t made into a separate scene. Before that night under the stars.
