He don't think he can be loved so he settles fir giving love because, well- love is love, right? It doesn't matter who's giving or taking because it's still love...
I mean he can be loved, his family loves him, but they didn't always like him. So really, he supposed that he had to choos between being loved and being liked.
And at least with Ghost he gets to choose, and he chooses to be liked. Because love would force him to stay, he wants Ghost to want to be near him. So he'll settle for being liked and not loved.
He's okay with it. He's long accepted it. And he'd let ghost live him a thousand times over, fo a million years if he could. And if ghost never truely fell in love with that, he's could live with that, he already is living with that.
