So I learnt to paint from a young age. I learnt a bit, and could somewhat paint. Now 2 friends of mine joined the art class. They are the only friends I have. Among them there is a guy who sketches really good portraits and figures. And I can sense it from how he judges my artworks that he condescends upon me. And passes harsh judgements. I really enjoyed the art class and had fun but ever since he joined I don't feel like painting at all. Also he and my other friend now have a pretty strong bond, such that I most times feel left out while hanging out with them. Idk what it is actually... They are like slowly drifting away. I feel incompetent and inferior. Moreover they both praise each other on their paintings and achievements, and leave me out. So now I stopped sharing my achievements with them. All these feel weird and suffocating.

Hello @Raichu,
My heart goes out to you.
I'm so so sorry what has happened.
I was infuriated and saddened!
He can't win every competition -
There's defeat where there's perfection.
For his arrogance he'll be punished.
His own value was what he tarnished.
He's a kind of man who I abhor.
It's so sad you want to draw no more,
But if you do, in you I'll take pride [1] -
I'm 100% on your side.
I might be naive, but I think his action is never acceptable and his hubris will bring him poetic justice (or at least I wrote this poem.)
And so sorry, your "friends" might not had been your real friends. It hurts.
I hope your day will be a bit less unbearable
Note:
My heart goes out to you.
