Her ex calls her a prude but he didn't know she is all about that grooming life with intend of marriage
Man, that kid groomed
himself.
She actually played along with his fantasies of marrying her, and now is actually entertaining the idea of going with it
Guiding and leading a young mind so that they will be susceptible to an idea which they can not properly process is grooming, and it is not my problem if you fail to realize this
...oh, shit, you were serious.
You're describing two different things while strategically omitting details in order to equate the two.
She didn't "guide and lead" him-- she was navigating soft-rejecting a child immensely infatuated with her, presumably not thinking that he'd seriously still be interested in an old woman by the time he became of age. On top of that, they hadn't been in contact for a chunk of the intervening years. She didn't go to his house to propose to him--
he went to
her house to propose to her.
She is not even the slightest bit active in this, nor has she ever been. Even now, she's been trying to brush him off as a child.
I'd tell you that you outright don't know what it takes to groom a child, but you have a decent description of it-- rather, it's that you want to be able to call her a groomer for some reason, even though the narrative goes out of its way to preemptively disabuse the reader of such notions.
Is there really going to be a guy flipping out over less than nothing in every chapter discussion of this manga...?
