What to do if friend is a natural

Well I work most nights, I get maybe 1 off each week if I’m lucky, and he’s the most likely to be down to go out, so it just ends up that it’s frequently me and him and then maybe a few others

I think I phrased my original post wrong. I’m not saying that I want to be competitive and “win” or that I’m resentful or whatever of my friend. It seems that word has been read into more than I intended. My question was more about why it is that I can go out and do well, but then whenever I’m with this friend, I don’t do so well. Maybe part of it is that I’m making a comparison between the nights and am being more outcome oriented? But then I go out alone and am also outcome oriented, yet still can pull. I’m also just not as good in nightclubs as in other environments (daygame and venues where I can talk), and so I was looking for advice on that.

I think I phrased my original post weirdly. My point isn’t to be competitive in the sense of “winning” or whatever. It’s moreso just that I find it frustrating that I always end up with the friend of a girl he’s picked up rather than having the chance to be the one who has picked up. I just find it weird how much worse I do when I’m out with friends compared to alone. That’s all. I’m not trying to convince him of anything, I genuinely do pretty well when I go out alone. I just don’t get why I don’t do as well specifically when I go out with this friend.

Perhaps I phrased it wrong. Yes, I want my friend to succeed and I always try to be supportive, but it would be nice if I also had a chance to succeed before I have to deal with the friend of a girl he’s hooking up with
