I want to show my draft to my friend but she keeps comparing everything with other stories
I don't mind people with associative thinking but my friend who is very supportive btw often calls simple stuff "plagiarism". She doesn't say it directly but u can guess by the tone. If she has seen something in a media she liked, it becomes copy in any other media. I tokd her my main character's name and she immediately thought about a character from another book. I really want to show her my draft but I know she will find something that she saw somewhere else and it'll break my heart. I don't know how to tell her nicely not to do that since I don't want to offend her or something.
