I've known my friend for 4 years and she is a good friend, but I always find myself getting jealous of her. I'm not very good at much and my friend is good at almost everything. She is an amazingly dancer and has won awards. She can sing really well and has again won awards. She can swim so fast and fantastically. She is a great actress and she has been on T.V. and the radio. She is also very pretty and always catches the eyes of boys, especially my best friend.
I try to put on a brave face, but it's so hard because she always shows off and brags about it. How can I stop feeling jealous of her? People have told me to ignore her, but it just doesn't work! Please help!

Ooo... I've so been there. All I can say is that eventually you get over it. It takes time, that's all. And... I know you'll hate to hear this, but... it's true, you need to ignore her, because focusing on the problem won't make it all better. Think, you're a lot better off than billions of people in the world. Possibly more than half. Also, if she shows off and brags about it, maybe you should re-evaluate your friendship...?
