Uhm, Can I do the AIO here?

Did I overreacted when I found out that my friend, 20 year old M, used to date our friend, which is 17 year old F (they recently broke up) and got angry and upset with him. The age gap isn't that big but it just didn't sit right with me that she's a minor. When I confronted him about it, he just keeps saying I should cut him off because he's a pdf. I'm so pissed and conflicted, I don't know what to do.

    idk what « AIO » means but i’ll still reply to what u said.
    GIRL YOU DID GOOD CUZ WTF IS WRONG W HIM???? that is so weird, it’s only a 3 years age gap but still, she was a minor and he’s a grown adult, this isn’t okay. and the fact that he’s getting angry at you (??????) tf ? i think you should talk to your mutual friend, cuz she lwk got groomed. i’m almost 20 in december and im telling you i would NEVER have a crush on a 17yo or even date one, cuz the gap between us would be too big. 17 is a teenager, a child the fact that he gets angry and upset cuz u call him out is even weirder, like he knows but he still won’t admit it.

    you should totally cut him off, he’s odd and shouldn’t date minors. even dating a 18yo as a 20yo is weird. you did not overreacted

    idk 3 years is not a big gap tbh but it is ick and pdf vibes if he sought her out knowing she was a minor. if not and happened naturally not a big deal 3 years is not a big gap esp since they broke off anyway

    i dont think its grooming cuz unless he (again) intentionally approached the friend cuz they were underaged ( and i mean he's the type to only date 18 under - ew) or used their being older than ur friend to manipulate ur friend for anything sexual (which is how grooming actually works)


    its healthy to actually have a wide friend group (which im assuming is how they met) anyway they're over now

    TLDR is all good if its they got together normally but BIG ICK and BLOCK if his type is girls younger than 18

    Oh AIO means "Am I Overreacting".

    Welp, tbh, he didn't got angry, and he know he was wrong. He's just purposely making me hate him. Hence the "You should cut me off thing"

    And thank you for your time replying. (/TДT)/

    Oh, nothing sexual stuff happened. And they were dating online, and I don't think he's the type to to do something sexual stuff. And yes, we're a friend group that met because of a same interest, or is it more accurate to say a fandom?

    yuh ig he was just fed up then and went "nope not gonna do this im out"

    BUT thats his perspective tho he def a weirdo (cuz why he said that) but to play devils advocate i also i think he was just done n didnt wanna deal with all this. wont surprise me if he doesnt hang anymore

    STILL good on u for watching out for your friend, this was a safe no grooming non pdf scenario but iz the internet ( ̄へ ̄)u never know

    hope ur friends doing alright
