VGCats hasn't been updated in how long again?

What does VGCats have to do with those plot lines?
Or great webcomics, for that matter?

He genuinely seems to believe that being honest about your feelings will make things work out how you want them to do. Sorry, Sven. It doesn't work that way.

Yeah, ew.

I'm hoping the last two panels means he won't. Hoping.

No, this is Questionable Content
I'm happy to be wrong about this, but it's what I think is coming.
(BTW, It's hard to show proof that there's latent desire while it's still latent)
Kugai:
And now Svens journey to the dark side will begin.

Unless ... any chance he actually had an intellectual and emotional relationship with Faye and doesn't know how to recognize or describe it? Is he just translating an unfamiliar sensation into the language of his all-too-extended adolescence? I hesitate to give Sven that much credit but it's the sort of characterization Jeph would do.

I think there's something to this. He's used to more of a "hit it and quit it" mentality, and probably wasn't prepared for an expected fling to turn into (for him) something he hadn't bargained for. When you're on unfamiliar ground -- as Sven is -- and you've got a pretty limited toolkit in terms of emotional intelligence and the vocabulary to describe what's going on, as Sven seems to have, then you tend to try to do the best you can with what you've got. Unfortunately, what Sven's got amounts to using a hammer to open a jar of pickles, and I doubt Faye has either the inclination or the patience to steer him on the right path... and that's assuming she's even worked through unpacking enough of her own baggage to be in a position to help Sven with his.
