you seem like a really nice guy- genuine really, so i really hope what you get is the best for you. :)

Okay, the oldest you guys are is 15 I'm guessing? Look at it this way: they're more than likely not going to last and she'll eventually learn for herself that he's trouble like you say. If you try to make her see what you see, guaranteed she will just ignore it or make excuses for him. So just be her friend for now and eventually you'll just be there for her when they break up.
