She is a teen in hs while the guy is a college student. She is not a senior or close in age with the guy they have a pretty big gab. Do yall know what I should do or say to let her know her relationship with him is not ok? Im planning on sending her some mangas or comics or webnovels featuring that type of relationship which showcases the red flags so she can understand where I’m coming from and she doesnt get defensive about this. Can anyone link me to some comics that features that type of relationship (preferably without the pwp or freaky stuff only showcasing the toxic relationship) pls i dont want my friend to get groomed

    I suggest you take note in any changes in her behavior that stick out as signs of being groomed. If you really think she is being groomed it is best to create a safe space to talk to her about it and be open and honest about how the situation makes you feel and your concerns for her. Obviously she could not know she is being groomed but this is a very serious thing so make sure she knows the difference between safe and unsafe behaviors and situations. I don’t know how else to help but please please please support your friend and make sure she is okay.

    Hii!! i don’t know any manhwa recs, but i also had a friend that was being groomed. Unfortunately, whenever my other friends and I tried to bring the topic she always got angry at us. For that reason we requested the headteacher to organize an informative talk about grooming, so she would at least be aware of her situation. I don’t know how attentive and caring your school is but, if talking to her doesn’t work out,
    you should tell a superior or an adult. Sometimes the one who is being groomed can’t realize the situation they are in so they start to treat you harshly when you tell them your concerns.
    Don’t feel guilty nor responsible if the situation doesn’t turn out how you wanted, but make sure she knows she isn’t alone!!
