You're both moving in separate directions... at least she is. I have had friends who were my best friends for a long time, but once we started growing up our interests started to change. That is happening to you and your best friend too. You gals will always be friends and remember each other (at best), but it's time reality faced you.
Find some other good friends, but continue hanging out with your old ones. There's nothing you can really do about it.
Also, when you grow older, you aren't going ALWAYS going to be doing the same things you have always done when you were younger. That doesn't exclude your friend here either. Communication is the only solution or key to a bad relationship.

I completely understand your situation because I was in it not too long ago. Even though it is really annoying still be very kind to your friend and remind her that you still are there for her. Hopefully the excitement of having a new friend will ware off soon. Also I would recommend in a very nice way to just let your friend know how you feel without making her feel bad.

try talking to your best friend and try hanging out with her and this new friend, maybe she'll become a great new friend
if that doesn't work, confront your best friend and ask her why she's avoiding you lately. it's better to be truthful and tell her how you feel.
then, if she keeps ignoring you, it's important that you keep other friends around to support you. I've lost too many best friends in my life (to them moving or changing schools, etc.) to know that best friends come and go

That's one of the parts of growing up. One girl and I were bestfriends since 4th grade, she left my school in 9th haven't talked to her or seen her since, and another friend and I were good friends back in middle school and now we are both in college and we don't talk.
People change when they get older, you'll have new friends and old friends, and some people you'll never talk to again! Sorry but that's how it is!

Try talking to her. Let her know you feel like she put you to the side. If she cares about you she will understand and try to change. If she doesn't then you have to forget about her and look for a new best friend.

Talk to her and if this other girl has that big of an influence on her it might be wise for you to take some time away from her. But it will hurt ,but as days go by it will get better I promise, been there and been trough it.

Your friend has a new bestfriend. Maybe you should get a new bestfriend. Besides she is not the only one in the world you have as a friend. There are thousands of people who are trying to be your friend. So my advize is......try to make friends with other nice people.

Ask her what's going in in her life and ask her "Are we still friends" and tell her what your feeling. This problem is horrible I lost my first best friend a long time ago because I wasn't that popular(even though i helped him ALOT). SO if you still think she can still be your friend take my advice. I hope this works.

You can try being more aggressive in finding things to do, but if you're continually brushed off or you really don't seem to have much in common anymore... then there's not too much you can do about it.
Friends coming and going is an inevitable part of life.

Your best friend has a new best friend. Move on and make some new friends of your own.
