I love my best friend to bits, but a lot of the times I feel so negative being her friend. She's pretty, taller than me, thinner, creative, and very outgoing. I think that I am attractive myself as well, but guys don't usually go for me. They usually like her instead. It sort-of lessens my self esteem; that guys can see her as a girl they would date, but not me.
She's pretty extroverted while I'm a bit more introverted. I know it's one of my goals to try and be outgoing and bold and meet people, but sometimes I feel like its partly the opportunity too. I don't have classes with people we hang out with because I have already taken those classes. I also live farther away than everyone else.
She seems to know everyone, and everyone is always more friendly to her than me. Whenever I go anywhere without her, people will ask me where she is, assuming that we're always together. The thing is, I bet that if she went anywhere without me, no one would ask where I was. It makes me feel like, "what, am I not good enough?"
Any of our mutual friends I feel if they had to choose, would definitely choose to be friends with her over me.
She always denies everything when I tell her, like telling her lots of guys like her or that she's super popular.
It's not that I don't like her, it's that I feel slightly worthless when I am around her, because others like her a lot more.
