"1 loyal friend is worth 10 thousand relatives" - Alfred Pennyworth

"Some of the most poisonous people come disguised as friends." Don't let loneliness make you connect with toxic people. Even when we're thirsty, we shouldn't drink poison. Stay strong!

During these times, I feel more and more people just don't care about maintaining a possible good friendship. Feeling like you're the only one keeping it glued together is very draining on your mental health.

Being alone is more meaningful than stay with the wrong individuals. everyone arrives when they need or want something from you....

I'm still trying to let go of a toxic friend, he just keeps coming back. I've known him for years now and it's so hard to let go of something I felt was so special. But I know I will never be as special to him as he is to me, and I need to let it go

“ The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies.”

Keep in mind: when it comes to 3 and 4, it can get a bit tricky when it comes to people with neurodivergencies! For 3, people with ADHD, ASD, depression, anxiety and more can tend to flake (not always). It's usually nothing against the other person. There are a number of reasons. For instance people with ADHD have an issue with maintaining relationships, people with depression may lack the energy and people with anxiety may be too afraid you are mad at them for not talking to you for so long that they're afraid to reach out at all. Keep in mind anyone with neurodivergency has the potential to become exhausted from or at the thought of social interaction, irregardless of whether they want to interact or not. For number 4: people with neurodivergencies tend to console and relate to others in a different way. 9 times out of 10 they are not trying to make it about themselves. They respond with a similar story to show that they were listening and can relate. It's a way of saying "hey, you're not alone in this. Ive been through something similar, so I know you're struggling". Sometimes within the stories they may even talk about how they dealt with it. Again, this is not to belittle you. It may in fact be them trying to give you ideas. Also, if they do this for a happy occasion, they are usually not trying to 1 up you, but share in your joy. If you feel bothered by any of these, it's important to communicate. During communication it is also important not to belittle them or their struggles. I won't lie and say there aren't jerks with neurodivergencies out there, but most of the time it's just how our brain works and there's not much we can do to help it. (Also keep in mind that just because someone doesn't seem like they're neurodivergent doesn't mean they aren't).

I once had a "friend" that constantly made me feel inferior and often gaslighted me into believing I was a narcissist. Only to find out a while later that they were not only the one who was the true narcissist, but was also a compulsive liar.

Sometimes the "friend who never reaches out to you" is going through some mental health issues and isn't doing it to intentionally hurt you.......

#6 the gossiper: If they spend time talking to you about their other “friends” then you better believe they’re talking about you to them. There’s an old southern saying “Bring a bone, carry a bone”.

The friend who drags you down is the worst type of friend you can ever have. The person who knows they can get you to do drugs/get blackout, makes you so uncomfortable/shameful things and hinders your own progress, because they are too weak to fix them. Run like hell!

my best friend always use to make me feel so small and dumb next to her. she used to always talk about her things and when i do something she makes it look like i am wrong. she always argues with me and told bad things about me to me and maybe (not sure) even others. now i have a good best friend who actually cares for me now.

Sometimes being a loner is the best and only option to avoid having toxic friends.

1. The friend who only needs something 2. The friend who gas-lights you(manipulating you) 3. The friend who never reaches out to you 4. The friend who only talks about themselves 5. The friend who only talks down on you

I’ve been friends with all these people… another one is that “friend” who’s around until life gets better for you & then they disappear or make you feel like a burden. Got a new job, was able to take care of myself a little better…they asked repeatedly “how much do you make?” Then right after I answered..every conversation is like pulling teeth, talking to a wall or far & few between. It hurts & it’s hard but in our minds, we know we have to let it go.

I walked away from a toxic friend 2 years ago and it ended very traumatically after I was honest with them about how they make me feel. I’m still struggling to this day to get over it, I sometimes feel alone and it makes me miss them and feel guilty for walking away, even though I know they weren’t healthy for me. The most toxic thing is someone having that emotional hold over you even after you walked away

Friendships evolve. Its ok to let go of someone even if they are not toxic because people grow into different versions of themselves and that version may no longer be fullfilling or may no longer contribute to the current relationship.

"I don't need friends, they disappoint me"

I’ve been slowly growing with the changes and noticing more and more of it in my life time. The older I’ve gotten the easier it’s become to distinguish the good friend from the bad friends

I honestly think not every "friend that never reaches out" is toxic.. Speaking from personal experience I also often don't reach out for longer periods of time.. I let my friends know though and also tell them that if something is the matter I am tjere for them It's not possible for some people, including me, to just open up and talk about problems. Sometimes we need space to sort things out or to prevent hurting our friends unintentionally. It's always about how you communicate. Even when, at the moment, you aren't able to express that you need time alone.. At least let your friends know when you feel better so that they know.. Also don't forget that the video stated that this type of toxic friends also makes you feel like they did you a favor.. Which people who isolate themselves to protect themselves or their friends or just to deal with their problems don't do. But keep in mind that some of us are trying our best to reach out but aren't able to bc of different reasons and not because we are toxic or don't care about you. Trust me, we do appreciate you and your support greatly but sometimes we just need that space. Sometimes we are too overwhelmed to reach out.

A “friend” that is never truly honest, lies and thinks you don’t know reality. Also the “friend” that tries to one up you with literally everything/is in secret competition with you. Or the “friend” that still wants your opinion or you to do things yet gets easily triggered by you, things you say and do and blames you/ throws jabs/ starts unnecessary drama instead of managing their insecurities, toxic past, and triggers. So glad I’ve gone through my season of dropping bad, dead, draining, leaching, poisonous, leaves and have now made room for beautiful people inside and out

The animation is GORGEOUS and her song choices are always stellar.

I had a friend who always tried to bring me down. Whenever I started to talk about my hobbies she was always judging me. She was the one that made me feel like an asocial person. I gave her a last chance and she still did the same thing so now we are not talking anymore and i feel so much better now.

I’ve had friends like these, who didn’t start out like this. Sometimes people can change, and not for the better. Or, you see them for what they are but didn’t notice at first.

I have a friend who only reaches out to me when it's convenient like if it's for class/schoolwork, to vent about her relationship problems or anything pertaining to her. As long as it's last minute, she'll ask for my attention but any other time when I try there's always an excuse. I've been sick & tired of it for so long, but if I run into her, I already know I'll act like nothing's wrong. I'm so bad at confrontation, I don't know how to break it to her that I don't want to be strung along anymore... I hate feeling bitter about it because I've slowly been cutting off so many friendships since graduating hs but I feel like my mental health has been so stumped lately. Thanks for this video though! If definitely helped a little bit :)

The 5 is literally physically and psychologically my "friend" Dead Leaves cut them off.

I'm so happy that at least I did one thing right - found a bunch of a friends who are always there for me, and who cares about me. I got really bad food poisoning last weekend, and two of my friends were having shifts at my place, and a third one, who was in another city, was constantly worried, and texted me 5 times per day. I love them so much

"The friend who never reaches out" may just be an introvert or socially anxious. Speaking as an introvert I don't often reach out at all and tire socially quickly, and I do not like crowds.

Staying away from gaslighters is a good call! i've known people like this and they can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted and mentally drained

Recently I ended a 7 year friendship because I started to notice that this friend would talk nonstop about themselves and their problems and I would always try to give advice, but when I wanted to talk about me she was almost always like “idk what to say” or just tried to ignore it in some type of way. The last thing I couldn’t bear was her justification of people who leak your intimate photos (I was one of victims) just because she fell in love with one of those people. She knew how hard it was for me, how much I cried and how it triggers me to this day, but still chose him. And in the end she looks only happier now that I’m gone from her life and I don’t have any best friends anymore. For whatever reason it makes me feel guilty and lonely, even though I know she’s wrong in this situation. :(

It's very hard to be friends with someone who doesn't respect boundaries. People have tried to contact me at work or if I'm out and about when I explain my schedule numerous times. They get mad or upset when I don't answer, and I explain once again I'm actually busy. I'm not sure where this falls, but it's an exhausting process.

I had a friend from kindergarden who would always force me to do things that I didn't like she would use my time as it doesn't matter one day I had an important lecture to attend and she called me bc there was an emergency in our squad but when I went there she told me that she justed wanted to talk with me,when I would be angry on her or start scolding she used to blackmail me and when we patched up She used me for notes and things that I bought new...then 1 day with the support of my cousin I started to yell at her that she was being to much toxic but then she fake cried and went to my mom my mom started scolding me but I was too much angry I told my mom how she treated me how she wasted my time and how she would boos me around and my mom supported me and that's how I got rid of that toxic friend....I swear I suffered for 7 continuous years of my childhood bc of that friend

Not gonna lie, I feel like letting go of a friendship along with a relationship is one of the most hardest things to do, I remember my friend getting a job and me having to let go of him because he was so busy and I couldn’t see him anymore, it’s very hard to let go of something that feels so special to you, but in the end, it could wind up being a good thing even though it doesn’t feel like it, because in a way, u are letting go of all the sadness of missing them, and opening up the chance to make new friends, I’m still friends with him regardless but, i find it really helpful when you make more friends to hang out with when the other can’t. It made it easier to let go and move on, he’s still my bestie but he is just been very distant and I needed to move on and meet other people. Like someone once said, you can’t only have ONE best friend.

Here is my list of people who I don't befriend with: 1: The friend that never returns the favor 2: The friend that never takes responsibility for their own actions and blames other people for it 3: The friend that can't keep a secret 4: The friend that can't take a joke and takes things too seriously 5: The friend that makes irresponsible desisions 6: The friend that wants to start unnecessary drama 7: The friend that doesn't stand up for you 8: The friend that doesn't make the effort to check up on you 9: The friend that is never fully honest and makes up lies 10: The friend that is completely selfish and inconsiderate to society

What if you don’t have friends

Number 6: the friend that leaves you in the dust when they get a significant other It’s hard to be friends with someone that doesn’t pay any attention to you now that all of their attention is directed at someone else

This is everyone I know. Time to do some cutting. Every point rang so true it was scary. No wonder I feel like I’m a burden when I reach out. I’m always the one driving conversations or meetups. When I stop, they go silent (until they want to vent / have a problem). Now I see it’s not just happening to me. Great video.

I feel like another thing to be said are people who aren’t honest with you. Just feel betrayed/ taken advantaged of at the end, regardless of their reasons. Also when reaching out to them, but they don’t seem as interested

Good stuff.. Definitely been there with people who don't reach out at all .or say they will and don't.. That's even worse,they basically lie and say they'll make time and don't.. I'd rather not be lied to than be told that they'll come through and they don't. I have found to keep my guard up and observe people for a time ...and not place people in a pedestal.. I also have had a person who used everyone they could, I called it out and refused to let them use me and others in my presence.. I couldn't control what they did when I wasn't around.. But I made it clear I wasn't going to be used..

feelin alot like that third one,, i have a hard time talking to people in general and while i sit more comfortably with friends, i still get very anxious to text them. what if they are currently texting somebody else? I would accidentally be an intrusion on the conversation I find it hard to ask them to do things with me because i feel like I am wasting their time, so i wait for them to text me and ask me what they would like to do so i dont feel like i am pressuring them into doing what i would like. and when the later months of the year come around, I kinda get a seasonal depression??? It makes it way harder to normally interact with people, I feel 10x more uneasy around both strangers and friends, and I feel like I often need a break. i feel like theres def a difference between someone who just dont give a sht about you, and then being friends with someone who overthinks alot.

i was friends with a lot of these types of person and since i've left them behind i feel way better. my mind is clearer and i'm happier.

It's better to mine deeper to find the most precious gem than get fake ones above

What I've learned is that the best friends you'll ever have feel more like family. I love my family, for all their problems.

I think number 4 is an overlooked toixc trait, like, if you start to notice that the conversation is not only about them but only about what they like and what interests them and then when you bring up something you its like they almost ignore you what your saying and only minerly validate your intrests till they end back up at there interslts and then only then they care about the conversation. Thank you for posting these videos, these really help me and lots of others put our relationships into perspective, thank you agian and keep posting👍💜

Its good that psych2go puts a disclaimer because some ppl don't when they talk about something

Your videos are so good for the public! Explaining and talking about all these mental disorders etc really help people understand and notice when others arent feeling very well mentally

Ive definetely had friends who i had to reach out to almost everytime just to see them. They were my only friends at the time and i was afraid of being alone. What i noticed these friends do that i dont think the video mentioned is that the few times they do reach out to you, it will be for small things as a way for them to not feel bad about not reaching you, and when you call them out on it, theyll just be like “but we did invite you here that one time”. I stopped reaching out to these friends and only hangout with them when they reached out. Ive seen them like 3 times in the last 4 years. I explained this to my therapist recently and her exact words were “they were never your friends. They just didnt know how to unfriend you without looking like the bad guys”.

made this mistake so many times and didn't even think to search it up

The third guy looks like someone who I know and was supposedly friends with. The description given was also very accurate in comparison to how he was. Seeing this gives me a little bit of confidence in the choice I made leaving him behind and moving on. It still kind of hurts to look at him sometimes but I made the right decision.

I love these videos, they are so helpful and have helped me throughout my rough times:)))

Sometimes, the "friend who always talks about themselves", doesn't do it because it wants to, he or she can be going through some mental health issues and accidentally ends up talking about their problems because they have no one to listen to them. However this is not always the case, some people is just like that because they, well, are like that. Good night people!

Another thing that I found a toxic trait is when they constantly manipulate you. I had a ‘friend’ who took away my other friends, then, she came to me and it was like she was my last hope. I was constantly pushed around and she changed me completely, even giving me trust issues. Then, she would say ‘I think we’re only friends because we like the same things’ which made me think that everything that she did I would have to do. Luckily, she is now out of my life and I have reconnected with my old friends (who were taken away). Yes, they can rarely brag. But everyone does and they care about me too. Please be careful who you trust and stay healthy and happy ❤ Remember, happiness is key. 😊

The third one really hit hard on me.... I always felt that I'm the one trying to save a friendship that the person couldn't care less about.... And I know if i don't send a text or say hi....then they'd do nothing-

The real mvps post lists, not 'first' 1. 0:45 The friend who only contacts you when they need something. 2. 1:52 The friend that gaslights you. 3. 2:28 The friend that never reaches out to you. 4. 3:07 The friend that always talks about themselves. 5. 3:48 The friend who always talks down to you.

personally its most hard when these 'friends' are too close to cut ties with, namely family

I spend more time reading the comments of these videos than it takes to even watch them. One of the reasons I like Psyche2go is because they get the discussion going on mental health topics, people really get engaged to express and discuss their differing opinions and feelings. Sometimes coming to even better or clearer solutions and conclusions than were even presented in the video. You opened a worldwide discussion on mental health, this is something big and important.

A friend has many capabilities and one of the most important is listening to their friend's problems.. People who somehow shift the conversation and start talking only about their own problems don't actually care about the other person.. In other words they are not your friend

I have found all types of them and unfriended them all Being a sensitive person taught me how to love myself and started to change but sometimes its good to be alone without t0xic friends ✌🏻 😉 If you are going through something I hope you get through it

I am a last year middle year schooler and finding toxic people is way easier than finding good ones...it hurts to be betrayed by people you once trusted a lot...I have a lot of toxic people too in my life and I am currently facing issues getting them out! This helped💙

I'm just too nervous to text people and it takes a while to build up confidence, I dont know if people know how shy I am but I hope they dont take it personally

The animation is so cute and good!

It's not all abt these. Sometimes 'toxic' friends arent toxic at all. Just growing out of your comfort zone. Time to meet new people. Or just be alone. Whatever suits you

Lots of comments about the label "those who never reach out " - as someone whose closest friends became these, it is when you can just tell that they really don't care about you anymore.

I'm the friend that doesn't reach out much...bit when I'm in the company of my friend/friends I treat them with love, respect, and dignity! We have and always create memories. It's just hard for me to stay connected when all of my friends are long distance...I feel and have felt lonely and isolated from so many people that I've just adopted being by myself. I never talk on the phone and my wonderful children are my company. I'm ok with that...❤️

Well,thx for spreading awareness about such important things:]

To the person reading this: Even though I don't know you, I wish you the best of what life has to offer 💚

I have an immensely hard time reaching out to even my closest friends to hang out or even just have a conversation. I'm basically that one friend who's part of the group and is involved that way. So technically I am one of these things but they all understand I WANT to be closer to them, it's just anxiety. (Also no, I don't consider this "making excuses" because I'm not hurting anyone, my friends know I love and appreciate them and the time we spend together, I just have to show it in a different way.)

Sometimes leaving someone is hard, even if they are bad or toxic, idk why ;-;

I will add two more types of fake friends. 6. The one that always causes useless drama 7. The one that cuts you off from your other friends Number seven is extremely bad because when they cut you off from other friends, you feel like you have nobody else but them, so don't let it happen. It's better to be alone then in bad company.

These always make me self-conscious about how I am with my friends; and if I follow these traits. Though looking back, I do not believe so. At least, I really hope not.

My friend group almost always leave me out of things and because I rarely talk they don't even quite notice me so I have to always talk or speak loud but even if I do they don't even listen to me, their also quite mean to me sometimes and because I'm super sensitive even for the littlest things I get sad and overthink. But because of them I always try to act like them. And sometimes I forget that there's other people that are really kind and care about me. That is why I cannot wait for high school and make new friends :).

Sometimes a person who is sick, they do need you. Always say ‘’if you can’t’’ it’s ok’’ always ask if you can help, no matter what.

I think I'm the toxic friend honestly. Rarely do I reach out to my friends first, I could go weeks without talking to anyone and I would be perfectly happy. It doesn't make sense, but I get lonely but at the same time I want to be alone. My mental health is so shit that I have like no normal friendships or relationships in general man

Her voice is so sweet❤️

If you find yourself questioning whether you're in a toxic relationship chances are that you are and the only solution I can think of is to cut them off Toxic people weigh heavily on their victims mental health so if you know someone who is in a toxic relationship(be it an acquaintance ship,family relationship or friendship)please help them *psych2go also has a video on that* Lots of love And Peace

Number 3 is my ongoing issue. Aiming to alter that perspective in the new year. 😌🙏🏻

why do i feel like i inherit all of these toxic traits and should be the one cutting ties with my friends for their own good

The best friend that I know is someone who run away from you whenever they have a hard time, so they won't bother you. It's your responsibility to chase them and help them with everything you can. And someone who come to you whenever they achieve something great in their life. It's your responsibility to congratulate them for they tried to share their happiness with you. And someone who tried to find any possible ways to agree with your arguments and If you're completely wrong then they will show you the truth. It's your responsibility to accept the truth. I heard this saying somewhere.. I don't know if it from Jesus. Maybe. "Anything that hurt you, it hurts others". Or something similar, I don't remember.

So I've recently found this channel and little by little im listening to this and trying to take the most out of it because i haven't been my happy self lately. I've been trying to take pointers and hints from these video to try and better my surrounds because i have not only had toxic friends but also a hard time dealing with things. Idk where im going with this but all i wanna say is that these videos are slowly but surly helping.

Being a alone is the best thing for you. You don't need friends, family, or even a lover in your life. Just be alone, people will switch up. It's human nature for them. Trust me, it's for the best 👌.

“Or a ride” what about someone who has seizures and is unable to drive? If he constantly asks if he wants to get a ride to somewhere to do whatever would that make him toxic

The gas lighting and the friend who never reached out sounds like people I know. I didn’t know how to describe these friendships until now.

I'm today totally absolutely SICK and SAD about "people who never reach you". My 3 closest friends, who are in couple, despite the excellent time we spent together, NEVER reach me. We know each other since years ago, I had several conversations with them and it's always the " Very busy by work sorry absolutely no time ". This really makes me sad. I feel so alone and depressed. I'm a happy person who like activities, deep talks, take a drink, eat at the restaurant or whatever, but I never find someone with my energy. Sometimes I really want to kill myself to be free from this unfair nightmare.

that's why to avoid those kind of toxic friends, i don't have friends, its actually better, i had enough of bad experience with toxic friends who only want to take advantage of me, i can even focus better in my classes without them, even sometimes i'm an easy target to bully for being quiet and alone, but who cares.

I feel like I’m in the middle of a toxic friendship because she is kinda of an abusive friend…she will physically hurt me sometimes- even though it’s painful I don’t like it. I guess it’s fine she doesn’t like me touching her or giving her hugs- but I’m jealous of my other friend because I don’t have a close bond with my friend like she does hers…then there are my other friends who I feel better around…. 😢

The animation and voice is so calming♡ Loved it Psych2Go❤

I don't know if I agree with just letting the friends go. I've had multiple experiences with cutting ties with friends. I generally tell them what is going on first, and voice my concerns before saying they are a lost cause. I've even had friends tell me I was doing some of these things (the one about not keeping in touch enough). Sometimes people don't even know they are doing something wrong, especially if their action is a lack of an action. However I do agree to just get rid of anyone who gaslights. You can tell them, but talking about it won't help, at least it hasn't in my experience. They just gas light more.

I fit for the every type of friend people must avoid , that justifies why am I being abandoned

Number 3 is the hardest. No one needs me or wants me. Number 5 is basically 90% of humans in my life. I wished that humans relationship was so simple.

Now I need a video about how to cut toxic friends from my life even if it was an 8years friendship:)

I'm so glad this channel exists, I'm dealing with a person who is a 4. They even try to make who had it worst into a competition and that's so weird. I told them how I feel earlier and I haven't checked to see how they responded because I bet it won't be pleasant. Unfortunately this person is currently my roommate so I have to look for a way to move out asap. Thanks for making videos on these subjects because sometimes it's hard to tell who's there for you and who isn't.

I will admit, I am rather insecure about whether or not I'm being a good friend. And it's often difficult to accept my own mistakes. I do eventually, but it often hits hard at first. Honestly, I find it a little hard to tell the difference between truly caring and just being insecure. I almost always mean well, but I can't always identify whether or not it was a good thing to do.

Sadly I'm the friend that never reaches out. My anxiety and overthinking mind just won't let me text people. There are a few times we're I reach out, but for the most part I don't. It hurts my heart because I'm so lonely because of it. I want to change and be a better friend. I just don't know how. I want to be able to reach out without feeling like a burden.

Thank you so much..I needed it 😭😭

I only have ONE toxic friend, but I still love her and she is currently healing from her mental health issues.

The animation and the soundtrack is so so comfortable , you are my fav mantal health etc channel

I wanna have friends though! If I get rid of them then I won’t have any friends 😭

I have some problems, I constantly see myself idealizing people like Creepshow Art, GameGrumps, Cosmodore, CallMeCarson. The ones that loose their friends and family, the ones that loose their fans and carriers, the ones that get bullied, stressed. I see myself sympathizing with people like that since I attempted such bad behavior and regret it. Any help with that, please?

I had an online friend who was number 3. It was always me saying hi, me asking how he's doing, and if he's alright. Our mutual friends would hear how constantly miserable he was/is, and I would feel so bad (at one point I was starting to question if I was being a good friend to him or not...) but every time when I would try to organise some time for us to hang, he would be super flaky about it. Yeah, he was going through some things, but whenever I asked him if he wanted some alone time, he would say, "Please don't leave me alone" and so I'd stay and talk... but he wasn't giving me anything to work with, so I was kind of getting mixed signals with his close ended responses to anything that I'd say. Eventually, I slowly stopped messaging and of course, he never bothered to reach out to pick things up or anything. It kind of hurt for a bit, because I thought we were genuine friends and didn't think he'd be one of those people that I'd never hear from again if I stopped putting in the effort. Anyway, I've learn to accept it and feel as though I'm not really missing out on anything from us not chatting as much as we used to, haha. I also had another person who was a combination of both 4 and 5 that I've managed to successfully cut off--we met when we were in kindergarten and I'm so glad how life played out for me to not feel like I'm obligated to be connected to her anymore. Honestly, this girl was quite toxic because it took me a really long time to realise that she was simply just... jealous of me? She would project her insecurities onto me and point out all of my flaws/the things that I was self conscious about to make me hyper aware of everything. Things were always about her and what she wanted to do, she never really would question about what I was thinking or feeling. Yeah, it was... not a good time, haha. We literally live around a 10 minute drive from each other, but there is nothing in our lives now that make me feel like I have to talk to her. I mean, she'd occasionally react to my instagram stories or send me a message through there, but I just don't reply, haha. Anyways this is really long but I just thought to get it off my chest :'D To whoever has read this far (thank you!) and is trying to move on from a bad friend, you'll get there! It hurts and feels uncomfortable at first, but when you're able to reflect and put yourself first, you'll be really thankful!

The "turns the conversation around to make it about them" is something I shamefully relate to. I'm naturally really talkative and enjoy talking about myself, I'm (hopefully) not narcissistic or anything, but I just enjoy telling people stuff about myself. And I have a best friend, she is really nice, but sometimes, I feel that I drag her around to do the things that *I* want to do. I'm aware of the problem and I'm trying to change, but sometimes I get upset when our conversation doesn't go as I want. The worst (or maybe it's a good thing) part is that she doesn't seem to be aware of it and continues to treat me wonderfully...
