Well, technically speaking, as a Jedi, he's not supposed to have emotional attachments. Nevermind the fact that he already violated that in secret with Padmé, to do so openly with complete strangers to him..... well I couldn't intentionally do that. Even if he tried to that in secret too, well, again strangers. It could be said that he acted as a Jedi should, with emotional detachment to everyone except Padmé, Shmi, and Ahsoka.
