He's...not sure what he thinks of love stories, which he's realizing as she asks, but maybe he should try reading a few. He simply hadn't had access to them before he was blind and afterwards they, like many other books, weren't an option.

"Ah...I think I understand. Companionship is a very important thing, romantic or otherwise. I have no experience with anything more than friendships, but...lots of people seem to have opinions on love, good and bad."

There's something more in what she says, something he's pretty sure he's missing, but he's never been especially insightful.
