So another joural entry, another problem, my best friend can draw, really draw, but i don;tthinks shes greatly creative. Well not totally orginal, like with this newest thing, she, and i was , is doing the 100 picture challange on deviant art. Shes come up with ther own ideas so far, but number 11 - memorys, on her page was a trip down memory lane. So i decided to make my idea vaery diffrent, i did a torch shining on 3 photos on some floorboards, i can't draw that well so it wasn;t very good, and i also got my friend to draw my people in the photos for me. The phtos i drew where alittle baby and his dad, the little boys tenth birthday and him graduating from school. Anyway, the next day shes drawing her picture for memories. I think you can guess what she did, photos, one included a child's birthday. The most annoying thing os that she takes MY ideas and draws them better then me and gets more credit while i just get vaigue " oh thats good"s maybe i'm just jalous but i think its just to unfair and annoying, i just want to scream at her STOP TAKING MY IDEAS !!!!!!!!!, but her pics are slightly diffrent than mine. so she wins and i seem like a bad and jalous friend. How do i deak with this ?

	Hmmm, that does sound like a problem. I agree with concrete kiss. Tell her how you feel. I'm sure she had no idea you felt upset. She probably thought that was a really good idea and was annoyed she hadn't thought about it. Also, she was probably showing you in her own way (possibly subconsciously) that she admires you're creativity and ideas. Just tell her how you feel, and I'm sure she will understand and will be sorry. And you don't seem like a jealous friend. You've no reason to because you are in the right. She shouldn't have taken you're idea, at least not without giving you credit or saying to you "Hey, do you mind if I use that idea?". But if you do confront her, don't get angry, that will make her (and most people) go on the devensive and you're conversation wont go very far and probably just end up with you both ignoring or in a huff with each other. Perhaps sub conciously she thinks you're drawing has more character that her's and might be intimidated. Thats why she's vague about her compliments. And from your "she, and i was , is doing the 100 picture challange" comment, does that mean you aren't doing it anymore? If not, then that's a shame. I'm sure this was something fun for you to both compete on, or even you could collaborate on some if one cant think of an idea etc. But in any case, don't stop it just because of this, because it would be a waste because I know you're good at drawing and are very expressive in you're art (from what you've showed me). Perhaps that's what she lacks in her drawing (emotional depth) and so envies you. Anyway, let me know how it goes ok?
