Not saying that's a nice way to go about things, just throwing it out there for perspective.

I never used her as my "japan" expert. We just talk about it, since I talk to actual Japanese nationals too. I only just found that sooo weird of her to say, and was so confused because that was a first. I was talking to other Japanese friends about it but they merely shrugged...So I dunno. Was just realllllllly confused on why she would say that.
