It's not dumb at all. If you care so much about your player skills and friend, there is a chance that you can improve your playstyle. You are asking very important question here, but without knowing how you play, we can only assume which job is better for you. Most people will only push you to play whatever they like to play, but some people are right about "play whichever job is your favorite". In your case, it might be a SMN. But honestly, what is really important.. I think it's that you become very fast and efficient player. My main is a healer, so in order for me to impress people, I have to stance dance and deal damage while keeping everyone safe. My mana is below 10%? I use too much MP on DPS? "click on potion" etc.
