Dang, this is almost spot-on how I feel with one of my closest friends.

That isn't me for once.
Long story short not everyone would keep going out there every week after that ****.
Dedication isn't easy

You say that you're friends would know if you played your bad characters, but...don't you have secondaries that you good with, but not as good as your main? Either just:
1.Still play your main, but don't start out playing as your main, start out as your secondaries saying that you need to warm up, and play every now and then with your main, but say that you want to focus on a certain one of your secondaries
or
2.Just blatantly say that you're going to take a break from your main and play your secondaries. They shouldn't take it as an insult as long as your secondaries still pose a pretty good threat against their characters.
or
3.If you still want to play your main, then don't focus on winning so much as landing a certain move or learning a certain technique. You'll play somewhat worse, but you'll improve over time. The thing is, since you'll be worse in the meantime, it'll give your opponent MORE practice against your main. Additionally, as they just simply play more, they'll begin to catch up to you, assuming they are improving.

There are not many solutions to this. It really depend son how willing to get better your friend is. The only solution I found in Melee was to start using Roy. Orject M kind of has a better balance though... You two cold just settle to become training partners, helping each other to get better.
