If the girl is only seeking advice from the guy, I think the guy leader should give that girl's number/myspace/e-mail address to a girl leader. Then that girl leader should call/text the girl and meet up for coffee/shopping day. On that day the girl leader should explain that if she does have any issues, the girl should come to the girl leader. I explained to some of the girls I work with how the girl leaders are there for the girls, and the guy leaders are there for the guys. This really helped them understand the way things are supposed to work, because before they sort of saw a leader, male or female, as a leader they could go to. But just encouraging that female to female one on one relationship with the girls in the first place should help to prevent this.
