Sup /adv/ I wanted your advice on how to let go of jealousy.

That comic hit me so hard. Thank you.

I know this gets thrown around a lot, but you need to tell your friend how you feel and see what can be worked out. If he agrees with you, you can talk to the studio manager with him and see what can be done. If he disagrees with you, he will be a drag on you in the long run. See if you can work yourself in with that contact or any others and further your own interests.

Also try to think of why he would get the position instead of you. Does he take more initiative? Was the contact his own? Is he more sociable? There is much more to life and success than direct hard work.

Either way, action is preferable. The jealousy will eat at your relationship and eventually there will be no way to resolve this by speaking to him.

Right? I love that comic. It's too real.

Thanks for your advice, I know its something I have to confront; just hearing other people's opinions helps me center myself. It's true, the contact is his but we signed on through that guy as a team. I've tried to speak with him about setting goals or how I'm unhappy with the work balance but it sends him into an over defensive mode which ruins his already lacking contribution.

Honestly, typing all of this out and examining it is really just making me feel like a bitch for putting up with this shit in the first place. Business aside, I am very close friends with this person so it's difficult. I never understood that saying about work and friends until now

He doesn't sound like a good partner or a friend. Do whatever you can to increase your position without him, especially if he's getting defensive and denying that you did most of the work. Try talking to his contact and show him some of your own stuff that you make independently from your friend, or even easier, join another team. Putting yourself out there is just as important as making the music.

Unfortunately there is a chance that this is a breaking point for you guys right now. Use whatever you can to be successful, but don't stoop low. Your friend may just want this badly for some reason and it may not be easily understood. Be the better man at heart and at work.

Yea you are right. My intention isn't to do anything shady at all, but I should still look out for my own interests too. I just feel used as of now. Thanks for your help

I want a girlfriend.

you can do it, i believe

I've had plenty of chances but the autism is too strong. Chads are too powerful to resist and jamals are smooth and exotic. I'm working to become one of them but it takes time.

We have each other, no matter if we have GF's or not.

Love is on the horizon and we shall be happy. Patience and effort will always bring us one step closer.
