Because Peeta and Katniss are supposed to love each other even though Peeta actually does love her and for a cover up Katniss had to say that Gale is her cousin.

Katniss feels as if Gale is hers and visa versa and when Katniss is pretending to love Peeta she is always worrying about what Gale will think back home - he is almost a distraction to her.

Would Gale have been good for Katniss too?

Gale and Katniss... they never really seemed to love each other in the way that Katniss and Peeta does. I think that Gale and Katniss were meant to be best friends, nothing more. But certain people would think otherwise. Gale and Katniss were meant ot be hunting partners. Even though Gale and Katniss kissed, it wasn't the same as Katniss and Peeta kissing. She felt a 'spark' (that's what people in love calls it) with Peeta, but not with Gale. Gale and Katniss met each other in the forest, so their relationship was meant to stay there, never really proceding in the love direction. But Katniss and Peeta met when she was starving and she was loking in his garbage for stale bread or something of the sort, and Peeta burnt the bread so that he can give it to Katniss. Gale and Katniss' relationship was changed when she returned from the Hunger Games because she won and had to move to the victor's house, away from him. There are similarities between them because their fathers were killed in the same mine explosion, and they had to look after their families by hunting illegally and selling their possessions at the Hob. Katniss and Peeta's relationship was also changed when the Hunger Games was finished. Katniss was faking her love for Peeta, but he wasn't faking his for her. He felt hurt when he realized that she didn't love him in the way that he loved her. They never really talked so much when they got back to District 12. To answer your question, Gale wouldn't have been good for Katniss as much as Peeta. They didn't share the loving relationship as with her and Peeta.


Does gale and Katniss have a baby?
