He was right on a lot of things. Backbone is something he needed and the last thing he wanted was to lose Selphie. A sigh escaped him as he stated, "You're right..." He looked away and stated, "Everyone's been telling me to go after her, but..." His thoughts wandered shaking his head, before looking at Balthier with a smirk and added, "Like I said Balthier when it comes to Selphie and the ladies, you don't have to worry about me."

Did he know what to do? No. But did he want Balthier to chuck something harder or bigger at him? No.
