Problem.. (Non TEF, sorry)

My best friend and I have been friends for nine years... until recently. She seems to be obsessed with my other friend, and they hang about each break together. I try to join in, but I feel left out, as they are joking and laughing, not paying any attention to me. I feel kinda embarrased to say this, but I feel as though I'm being abandoned. I'm pretty sure I haven't done anything wrong.

Whenever I approach my best friend and she is on her own, she asks me why I am there. I've been hanging around with another friend for a while, but she has other friends, and I want to still be friends with my best friend. She does have problems at home and she used to talk to me about them, until recently.

I just dont want us to drift apart, but I do want the best for her.

Also, I feel quite guilty, as I think the friend she seems to be obsessed with has been telling her that I've been saying nasty things about my best friend(which of course I havent), as my best friend has been glaring at me for some reason. Then she comes up to me later, and tells me how my best friend is quite selfish and annoying..

Does anyone know what to do? I have considered asking my best friend about this but she gets awkward and shy when this happens, and would probably say that it was nothing and what was I talking about.

Maybe sit down with both

Maybe sit down with both girls at the same time and tell them how you feel.Best to talk it out then letting slide over till its to late.

Faunet has good advice, which

Faunet has good advice, which I just want to build on;
It's best to talk to both at the same time to avoid looking sneaky in the eyes of one or more of the other girls. By talking to both at the same time, you show you value both of their opinions and friendships. Going around behind their backs to talk individually sends a poor message and could hurt your desire to be closer with them.

Okay, thanks so much both of

Okay, thanks so much both of you for the advice. I'll try and speak to both of them, if I can catch their attention spans for a few minutes.. lol.

lol it might be worth

lol it might be worth inviting them over for pizza or something or just sitting with them over lunch (since eating tends to take a while anyway, it's a good time to chat ;D)

Ok. I might also get my other

Ok. I might also get my other best friend to come. As she has been worried about the problem as well(she is very understanding, lol). They both skip lunch, which is one of the reasons I dont waste my breaktime trying to find them, but I'll find another way.. somehow.. (I am determined.. never cross me when I am determined.. xD)

I agree with Tera just be

I agree with Tera just be open and honest. Having them over to eat is a good idea as well.
