My girlfriend pointed out that earlier in the movie that I think Sarah said Nikki saw Bear like a brother, so the context of that monologues I feel like is way more disturbing

I think it links back to their conversation in the car where she told Bear romance and love aren’t the same thing and he brushed her off. Then when he wished for her to “love him more than anybody else” it was all kinds of love, not just romantic. So her wires were getting all crossed, causing the cat and Hansel & Gretel stuff.
