Comment by Yjh.pls.be.mine on Witch Hat Atelier - Chapter 60

that's a funny way of showing it, tormenting her out of own home and into a far flung atelier. 

to love someone is wish them to be their best selves.

Thus he isn't dateable material. Especially someone so immature that they can't handle themselves and attack what they desire.
Bullying shouldnt be seen as a precursor to love.
