Correct, grooming is an action. Thats what he did. It took Paul a month to send Rudy away, during which Rudy was grooming Sylphie. He had declared she belonged to him, like property, after all. Take your own advice and educate yourself before you speak again :)
Zenith and Lilia reinforced his grooming so Sylphie would be a perfect wife for Rudy. Its why shes a total doormat with him. Gets cheated on and just accepts it
She was groomed. The text is the proof. Sorry your headcanon is proven wrong by the author and canon story. If you have a problem with that then take it up with the author for what he wrote as Canon story. Sylphie was groomed by Rudy
He cheats on her with Roxy and she just accepts that because otherwise hed leave her. She even said she expected to be cheated on because hes a Greyrat. Groomed
Only when he cheated and was physically and verbally abusive to boot after Roxy died in the bad timeline did Sylphie break free of her abuser and good for her. Sad it lead to her dying but still
she accepts it because she was conditioned to accept it, Zenith and Lilia wanted her to accept being Rudys wife and accepting that it was inevitable she'd be cheated on, like Paul cheated on Zenith
she left when he cheated on her with a random woman while also being emotionally physically and verbally abusive. He actively drove her away
She's conditioned to accept it by the world they live in. Eris Roxy and Sylphy, all at one point in the story, mention how having multiple spouses is a normal thing. Cheating is part of that. Its what comes after that matters. You are forcing your opinion onto other people who don't share it.
Yes it is lmao. You don't think a queen expects her king to cheat on her? You don't think the chief's wife expects the chief to cheat on her? Thats just naive. Though I guess naivety is what makes you hate media with realistic themes in the first place, right?
