The point of the whole Sora/Tai thing is inline with that, that you won't always win your crush and she might not like you, and that's not an evil or malicious act on her part. You need to accept when it happens and move on instead of falling into depression or making an ass of yourself. So he did get cucked, and they used it to try and teach another depressing lesson about growing up.
