He has been showing me attention for a long time and giving me gifts, although I asked him not to do so, but I didn't dare to return or throw them away, considering it impolite. And recently, we accidentally met in the upper city. Then he said that I was deceiving myself and my feelings, that I actually love him too, but I don't want to admit it to myself. And most importantly, he said that the Mentor would be disappointed in me and that one should always reciprocate kindness, and that by denying his love, I am acting against the teachings of the Enlightened.
