My best friend has a new best friend

I guess it's kind of pointless to talk about because there's nothing I can do about it that won't cause any trouble and I really don't want that. I just feel like I need to vent some where and get this off my chest. I imagine it's happened to a lot of people.

I've been friends with this guy for a good few years (person B) and we get on really well. We both acknowledged that we were best friends, even in our group of friends, and that's never happened to me before. I used to have difficulty making friends so it was amazing that I found someone who I connected with so well. We even used to say we were like friend-soul mates. [no romantic feelings btw] we both like girls.

Person C comes along to our friendship group, like two years ago, everythings fine. But recently I realised me and my best friend arent quite as close as we were. We're still great friends but we dont talk every single day like we used to and I noticed I wasn't the best friend anymore. Recently it's obvious that person C has taken my place. They do stuff together and leave me out sometimes. I was invited along the other day but they made the plans first, I was kind of an after thought. We all meet up within the group so that's okay.

I kind of blame myself though. I have difficulty with emotions and showing affection for people. I can be abrupt and sometimes I'm not easy to get along with. I realised that person C makes up for what I lack. They seem more alike. It's only natural that this happened. I don't blame anyone. But it's just getting me down. There's nothing I can do and obviously we're still friends, it just feels crappy.

The main thing is I'm worried I'll start resenting them both. The other day someone made a comment about them two doing something together in the other room. Then someone said "hey you used to be best friends with him right" and that's when it hit me.

Sorry if I'm making this seem like a big deal and stuff, or if it's petty. I just need to vent about it. I'm guessing this happens all the time to everyone.
