Well, actually...

... I'd like to say something about him and Ayumu, but I don't really want to spoil that much, even with a spoiler tag right now. I'll just say to wait until chapter 157 if you follow the manga.

He'll probably always think Hina actually does hate him because of her overly-tsundereness, and if he were given the chance, I wouldn't be surprised if he did go for Maria (just look at the way Hayate ogles her). So I wouldn't really blame him for doing nothing.

EDIT: And the way I see it, the series is more about the development of the non-Hayate characters than it is for Hayate.
