| Jun 14 at 10:46 | comment | added | roganjosh | I would not use this. You're referring to your friends directly, so to say that having talented friends is disheartening is basically saying you wish you had friends that were crap at everything. It would make sense only if you qualified the statement with it being about their talents specifically and not feeling able to reach their level. | |
