I just think that the author saw the all thing in a different light. Or maybe I'm just imagining it. Basically, Katniss chooses Gale in book 2 (she even says it out loud) and lol at her at that moment because it is so obvious that she does it for the wrong reasons. I actually love Gale. I love the character and unlike 99% of the fandom, I love where the author went with him but it adds to the all confusing elements between Panem the Capitol and Panem the Districts. She's in front of what she considers to be two choices: boy with the bread but he's been marked by the Capitol and the hunger games and Gale who is like her and almost represent the rebellion (his speech is certainly crystal clear in that area). Of course she was going for Gale almost at the same time she agrees to represent the fight.
I really saw more the "love triangle" to be a Faith one about the all symbolic path she had. Problem is, the feelings has always been also very obvious.
I was going to post the quote I just told you and searched for it in english since I have the french version and ... wow... it's so not the same meaning :o. It's a lot more harsh in french :o.
English quote: “Katniss will pick whoever she thinks she can’t survive without.” French translated literally by yours truly: " She will choose the one she estimates to be more fit in order for her survival." Oh *___*.
