I didn’t really know how to title this because its a lot, but ive been wanting to be an actor for a while now. So earlier this year I asked my dad what I can do to try to start, he told me that there was an acting class thing at a college. I didn’t want to be by myself so I invited my cousin. But ive been wanting to be an actor for a while before that. Anyway, while we were there we did a few acting exercises, near the end we were all given a script and me and my cousin were partnered up. After we acted put the script together, one of the other actors there came up to us and started talking to my cousin, she was apparently in a student film which was holding auditions and that my cousin fits one of the parts in it and that she should audition. Me and my cousin dont look alike at all, shes darker skinned while im more on the lighter side. The student film she auditioned for was about a Mexican family. While were both Mexican, she does look more the part. My cousin is also good at acting so I understand that im not as good as her. But she did get the role and I was happy for her but also jealous because shes never even brought up acting before that class. We are best friends so she wouldve told me if she wanted to be an actor, but shes only talked about it after that day. So your probably thinking, just tell her that you want to be an actor, no. My cousins also very sensitive and emotional. She also crochets and I was at her house once and she started crocheting. I asked her if she could teach me and she got all defensive about it. She said that it was because that was the one thing she was good at and she didnt want me to upstage her again. Her mom has always praised me for my art skills, when we were younger my cousin tried to get good at art too, but her mom would always say I was better. So I feel like she would think I want to be an actor just because she does and that Im trying to be better then her. When in reality I wanted to be one long before she did. So what do you think I should do? I live her and I dont want her to be mad at me. Please help
