We're in job interview season at my grad school, and we're all competing for jobs, and I'm getting irrationally annoyed with one of my friends. We're up for a bunch of the same jobs, and it should be good that we're doing well with different interviewers, but every time I say "Oh, I felt like X interview went well," she immediately launches into how awful the interview was for. And it's like, can you let me feel good about this? I've listened to you talk about the offers you already got from the firms you were at last year while I'm still waiting to hear about mine. Do you have to shit over my good experience?

I recognize that a LOT of this is projecting and paranoia.

That actually does sound very inconsiderate, but probably not malicious. Maybe you could say something to her about it (gently)? Like "hey, I'm happy about this, and I want to celebrate a bit. To be fair, you've had a lot of successes too." or something

Do it. Interrupt her with a smile and say, "Whoa whoa, just let me feel good about this for a while, okay? Let me have this moment."

Then change the subject. Change it every time she tries to bring it back to complaining, and if that doesn't work, end the conversation. Don't flounce out or stomp off angrily, just say, "Welp, gotta go..." and leave.
