Because.
[No, that's not the end of it. He had to think about it. It took time, so there was a long gap before the reply. ]
because she has others who depend on her. Like you.
It is like
an arch. Without the capstone, the arch cannot hold. Some pieces are more important than others.
Nina is like that. A capstone.

She is important.
But telling someone not to care about you is a shitty thing to do, both to them and to yourself.
You can’t go this alone. It’s not corruption to care about others. All pushing people away does is leave you lonely.

why?
[Honest question. He doesn't get it. ]
she knows I care about her.
A great deal.
[In an entirely asexual platonic brother/sister way. which still feels weird to say to Nina's boyfriend.]
[So I am lonely.
there are worse things.
Like having to kill someone you care about.

[ No one can see him but he is pinching the bridge of his nose at the moment. ]
It sounds like you did it for the right reason. I'm sure they'll forgive you.
Look, just try to fix things with Finnick?

If they do not, they do not have to. Forgiveness is not a right.
[Lioriley had refused his apology, withholding her forgiveness.]
HOW
I have rescinded my right to retaliate against him.
I have given him advice about armor--good advice.
I sent NIna after him when he ran off.
What more would you have me do?

I guess you're right.
What's his problem with you then?

I do not know.
He does not listen to me. He is like a Blood Angel. All he sees when he sees me is rage.
Perhaps he would listen to you.
