Everyone Competes with Friends

Competing with friends
always seems like a good idea.
Games are fun, winning is fun,
so there is no problem.
Until you find out that your friends
value winning more than friendship,
or they think less of you
if you don't compete very well.
If you have an advantage in the game,
then you lose if you win,
and really lose if you lose.
