<v ->Remember, friendship is interesting,</v>

2
00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:06.340 line:15% 
and really complex.

00:00:06.340 --> 00:00:11.260 line:15% 
Sometimes it can take on a caregiver-like mentality.

4
00:00:11.260 --> 00:00:15.253 line:15% 
And I don't believe that all friendships should be that.

00:00:16.810 --> 00:00:19.820 line:15% 
When you learn that a friend has HIV,

6
00:00:19.820 --> 00:00:22.220 line:15% 
remember that they're still your friend.

7
00:00:22.220 --> 00:00:23.920 line:15% 
And they don't need for you to manage,

8
00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:26.540 line:15% 
they don't need you to manage their disease for them.

9
00:00:26.540 --> 00:00:28.690 line:15% 
They need you to continue to be their friend

10
00:00:28.690 --> 00:00:30.680 line:15% 
and to offer them support.

11
00:00:30.680 --> 00:00:33.020 line:15% 
If the person comes to you and they have questions,

12
00:00:33.020 --> 00:00:35.800 line:15% 
maybe you can help them find answers.

13
00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:37.600 line:15% 
But don't feel like you have to take on the role

14
00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:40.910 line:15% 
of taking care of them, and forget that they

15
00:00:40.910 --> 00:00:42.010 line:15% 
are still your friend.
