Dear 'friend',
So. You've become a lot colder towards me. I realized how...not worthless...but irrelevant you are in affecting my life. You're ever so perfect. I try my hardest. Nope. All you! Every timr I show a drawing to my friends, the question is 'Woah! Did ___ draw that?!' I respond with a no, and without fail 'Oh. Well, ___ could draw that five times in less than five minutes.' Have you any idea how stinging that is? Hours of effort, only to be shot down by my own friends, saying you're so amazing. It hurts. I myself know you're a great artist. But you do everything so quickly. So quick, but it's not flawless. You finish something in less than thirty minutes, and I slave over a drawing I'm enjoying, finish, and mine looks...crappier next to yours. I've had a few friends tell me to take art lessons from you. You deny it, telling me my art is better, but we both know the truth. You enjoy the compliments. You enjoy them. I've had my self-esteem shot down, and I'm going to put up with you for another year. Because my friends are friends with you. But I'll be somewhere else next year, another floor. So, enjoy the compliments while you can.
Not sincerely at all,
Golden
