unresented
Taken without bitterness
Not resented; accepted without bitterness or grudging feelings.
The word describes slights, impositions, or inequalities that someone might reasonably object to but doesn't: His unresented authority came from years of fair dealing.
It often highlights what's surprising—that resentment would be natural but is absent.
