Is it normal to feel like this?

Ok, so I have this really good friend that I've been really good friends with for four years now, and even from the start we've always clicked. But this year, she made another really good friend. For a while I was ok with it, because I was really good friends with this girl too. But right now me and my friend are recovering from a fight we had, and after the fight I felt we'd never be as close as we once were. Also, my friend has been getting closer and closer to this other girl, and the other girl says that she's her best friend, and I can't help but feeling a little left behind, because I'm worried that the other girl might be my friend's best friend instead of me.

I would be alright with this if me and my friend hadn't been close friends for so long, and if it wasn't so clear that the other girl is very close to her. Is it normal for me to fell left behind like this, or am I just being selfish?

    Yeah, this is normal and it's happened to everyone. People change and grow and stuff.

    It's crappy when it happens to you, and it's crappy of someone to do it to you, but that's just how it goes sometimes.

    yeah it's very normal. people change and friends come and go. but if you're all friends maybe try getting the 3 of you together to do things and if you still feel leftout when all of you are out together then maybe they just have a really strong connection. but if they are both still your friends don't feel bad about it cause it's nothing personal. as you get older you'll see that you will grow distant from your close friends cause you have other things going on but if they are a good friend then they'll always be there for you, just not 24/7. i hope that helped somewhat...

    I think its a normal reaction to feel this way and the feeling will pass in time.
    You also have to understand that these things happen throughout life - people come and go.
