Drifting (12)

Ok... how to start.
I have these awesome friends, they mean the world to me, and even thought they are totally weird, I love them to pieces.
I met this new girl in school and she seemed like the kind of person that would fit in our little group, her personality was almost identical to mine only a little more outgoing. I introdued her and eveyone got along straight away and that was awesome!
but then things started to change in the group.
I am basically the leader, and the others are happy with that, but now, they seem to be talking to me less, they arent coming to me for their problems anymore. instead, they go to the new girl.
I know this sounds like some cliche jealousy thing, and I am thinking the same thing, but I literally stopped walking in the middle of the hallway and no one even turned around, they just kept talking to her. this really hurt me, and I dont know what to think?
am I just being a jealous idiot or am I being replaced?

You are being jealous; but I that's pretty natural. Your friends are diverting their attention away to a shiny new thing. It's a pretty natural response.

Something I want to address right away is if you are upset about not being the 'leader' any more (social meritocracy worry me anyway >_>) or if you feel like you are being excluded from the group.

If you are upset about not being leader you are just gonna have to deal with it; either one of two things are going to happen, this girls shiny new novelty appeal will wear off and things will go back to how they where; or she is more charismatic and interesting than you (you said she is more outgoing yourself) and honestly you can't change that without some sort of nasty social engineering attack to discredit her.

If you feel like you are being excluded then that's a bit of a different bunny. If you are in a mostly female group it would most likely be best to talk it out as >>4 suggests. If your in a mostly male group then that might be counter productive and it might be best to talk to the girl in particular.

a friend would be the leader of the group you made up
a true friend would make a new one with you
why not find someone new to talk to nowadays?

*sigh* such angst...well...All I have to say is...talk to them. Tell them everything. Dont hold back any details about how much it hurts you. And remember: Dont get all pissed about it. Remember to stay kind. I may not have the best smooth wording, but I hope you get the idea. Thanks for listening.
