She realizes she never actually was attracted to him later.The English version of Final Fantasy VIII is filled with the phrase "whatever". But due to the lack of context clues for that come naturally with voice acting (inflection, primarily, as well as the use of silence), I can definitely see how “whatever” or many other moments with Squall could be read as unnecessarily cold, aloof, or cruel.
