Meaning
This reads as a joking confession that affection and conflict can blur together, so the speaker treats the moment as both emotional and combative. It can be taken to mean that when feelings are involved, ordinary rules feel suspended. It lands in a situation where rivalry has become personal, and someone is half teasing, half admitting that the stakes have turned messy.
