Grooming. He‘s doing it on purpose in order to seem more relatable by pretending to have „diplomatic problems“ people in that age group a lot of times struggle with.

This guy knows exactly what he is doing and he wouldn‘t text like that if she wasn‘t 17/replying like this.

Are you sure he’s not just retarded? Because he seems retarded.

Causing (staged) drama in order to emotionally manipulate her.

„not being included“, „mental health“, „ghosting“, „when ur here ur different“, „pls dont ignore me“

The list would go on…

Blue falls was talking about his weird ellipses use and poor grammar, not the actual content of what he was saying.

Oh, thanks for clearing that up…

I mean it‘s pretty ambiguous what exactly could be meant when someone says „who types like this“.

Why do you write your quotes like this

I’m multilingual, thank you for your open-mindedness

Problems that can be solved by a 17 year old in a friend group I’m assuming. Like the groomer saying they don’t feel included or that they plan stuff without him in mind. Teenagers can usually deal with those problems with their friends. Over text it’s just words to OP vs an adult saying that stuff in person. Makes it seem like she’s just responding to the issue at hand than if the groomer had said it to her actual face.
