grooming??

i’m confused on what this is, i was molested my entire childhood at first i was groomed into it i think and when id refuse it as i got older it got violent and id be physically punished for struggling then it suddenly stopped one day, now they act like nothing happened like its a completely normal family and now even the person who molested me became my closest and only friend i was isolated and he was the only person nice to me and they’d give me gifts daily and treat me kindly daily like nothing happened and i feel so stupid because i still love him even though i realize he raped me and hurt me and anytime i’ve told anyone anything it just gets me in trouble what even is this called am i being groomed??? what genuinely now that he doesn’t rape me do i have to offer why would he groomed me when he stopped already?? now what is this relationship???

Sounds like you were groomed and raped. You were a minor so that by itself means that anything he did was rape but he used grooming to make you go along with it
