Observation Helps
It was my first day at college as a DSY (Direct Second Year) student, so I was two months behind the rest of the class. I tried talking to some classmates, but being a DSY student, the regulars weren’t that friendly. Then, I met another DSY student named Neil Sanders.
When we first talked, Neil wouldn’t stop bragging about himself—his father’s business, how rich he is, what we should be doing, and more. Honestly, it was overwhelming. He kept talking about himself so much that it was almost frustrating. He even dragged me to the library to get a reference book for a subject. At first, I thought, Maybe he’s smart, maybe he’s focused on studying.
But instead of judging him immediately, I decided to observe. As we searched for the book, he kept bringing up topics I had zero interest in. He even admitted that his friends often ditch him because of his annoying personality. That was a red flag, but I kept listening and observing. I knew that sometimes, people who seem difficult can still be useful—especially if they have connections, like Neil’s rich dad.
After a few days of observation, it became clear: Neil wasn’t the big deal he made himself out to be. Sure, his dad had a business, but all that talk about how great he was? Pure exaggeration. And then it clicked—he was doing all this to get attention from girls. Neil was a classic simp, someone who will step on anyone for validation, but won’t have your back when you need help. I’ve seen this type before—they cause you trouble, ask for help, and then disappear when it’s your turn to need something.
So, in the end, I keep my distance. I’m around him, but I’m not with him.
Observation really helps you figure out who your real friends are—and who’s just looking out for themselves.

Not everyone you care about cares about you. #watchyourback Many times, the weapons that are formed against you, are the people that...are around you! #watchyourcircle The sad thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies. #watchyourbacks Some people aren't who they say they are. Be cautious of the company you keep. #fakefriends Sometimes the person you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger. #fakepeople Sometimes snakes don't hiss. They call you bro, sis, babe or friend. #tupacshakur Even the ones you think "naw they'd never do me like that" will do you like that. #becarefulwhoyoutrust Be careful....not all are what they seem. Some people pretend to be the beach, but they're actually quicksand. #watchyourback 🔥Subscribe to my YouTube channel and podcast,👉🏾"Uplift Past Crossroads"👈🏾🔥 Befriend me on Facebook/LinkedIn = Sean Christopher Jenkins 🔥Follow👉🏾@troubledontlast 👈🏾IG/Twitter/Snap for more🔥 Turn on Post Notification - Like - Comment - Share - Save #repost @latoyia32 ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ . .

Always a choice on who “you” choose to surround your life and the conversations you choose to have ~HS🌷 . . . #AlwaysaChoice ♥️ . . . . . . Like a book, it has a introduction and a closing chapter and only “we” can decide how we write the pages in the middle 🌷 . . . . . We travel with many but decisions are always decided by one ♥️#makinggratitudecontagious is always the intent ♥️ . . . . . . . . . . #surroundedbywho #knowyourcircle #conversationsthatmatter #helpingbuildbridgesacross #storiesbehindthesmile #plantingseedsofgratitude #fromaheartthatknows #gratituderobsregret #gratitudeismorethanaworditsanaction #graceandgratitude #gratitudedocumented #gratitudedaily #lovealwayswins https://www.instagram.com/p/CDXJMenHmi3/?igshid=jmysec3jxpw8
