honestly, this is the thing that's going to get her hurt. being swayed with kind sweet words, etc. just because they are kind, sweet, flirty, etc doesn't mean they no bad intentions. if she continues to act like that, it makes her an easier target to those disgusting men and they can see she's an easy target. idc if he's the ml, but at that point, if I were her I wouldn't even trust him or anyone, i wouldn't even think about being in a relationship until I find out what I want. she got hurt by two men she "trusted". trusting them until she sees their true colors with her own two eyes. you can't continue to do that. you can't wait until you see their true selves bc there are some ppl that will be good at hiding it. honestly, she needs a big sister figure or something. like that friend, in the beginning, mad about the situation.
