Riddler has his own opinion on Ed's disastrous previous love life. It's not a kind one. He tries to steal another kiss, but Oswald's moving and they won't make him feel trapped or pressured, so they back off immediately, let him have his space to move.
Of course, it doesn't stop the immediate recriminations between them. Ed accusing Riddler of scaring Oswald off, mentioning those women, Riddler accusing Ed of being easy and intimidating Oswald with the way he'd put himself around.
But they nod and smile at Oswald, understanding and low pressure. Whatever Oswald wants.
