but fr tho an online relationship between two people a year apart isn't grooming
grooming is when older people take advantage of the younger's impressionable stage of life to get what they want from them
an 18yo and 17yo isn't like that
Hes not a grown man. Hes 18 eighTEEN.
You're not grown until your brain fully develops which is 25.
It's not like hes 18 and shes 15 that would be weird. But she turns 17 this year meaning the age gap is a year and a few months.
