My friend is jealous I get hit on more?

[Anonymous]

I have a really attractive friend, I mean just beautiful-like she used to have over 100k followers on Instagram and constantly gets compliments when we’re out-

But last night she drunkenly admitted that she’s jealous I hooked up with a guy that’s her type & hinted at me “passing the torch” to her and giving him to her basically. She continued on to say that she never gets hit on & I always get the pretty guys and and she only gets ugly guys and she doesn’t understand why.

This has been rubbing me the weirdest way because she kept talking about it all night and how she’s so desperate for a cute guy’s attention.
She’s so beautiful and I think men are just intimidated by her beauty, but am I wrong for feeling some type of way?
I feel like she’s inevitability going to compare herself to me (if she hasn’t already!) and try to one up me now in the future, or try to belittle me somehow to compensate for that.. it’s obvious she cares a lot about male validation and getting hit on.
Why drag me your friend into your insecurities.. and now compare me to you.. I don’t think I want to be her friend anymore..
Thoughts?

I can’t edit my age range but we are in our mid 20s - but a slightly older person’s opinion would be more useful

First of all... if she actually WAS your friend at some point, she's not now. She sees you as a threat/competition for the same meat market (sorry, guys) that you're both in. You owe it to yourself to distance yourself from this person. She will only grow more competitive as you both get older (and... looking at your Anon. profile, you're old enough to know better).

I’m actually 24, but this was exactly what my gut was telling me. Thank you

The drama queen can't have it both ways. Either she continues to be this perfect model piece of unobtainium with thousands of drooling satellites or she will have to tune it down to the point of being more of an approachable girl-next-door type.

You are a threat because you ARE approachable. Many model type women do complain that they never get approached because guys assume taken or out of their league. It's a weird paradox.

I tried telling her that they’re just intimidated because of how pretty she is but now this comparison between us makes me uncomfortable

Women are the worst rivals, especially frenemies. If she's on your age bracket tell her HS is over.

My cousin was jealous of me too while she got all the attention and guys all because one guy chose me over her

[Iron_Man]

That happens between friends

[Asker]

I’m not sure how to deal with it, besides not being her friend & finding other people with similar values as me.

[Iron_Man]

This is a tough one. Is it really causing a problem?

[Asker]

Hm, I guess not yet. I guess I’m also avoidant and want to leave at the first red flag lol. I’m just worried it’s going to stir problems in the future, like the one-up’ing and subconscious comparison. I’d say it’s causing uncomfortable feelings between us both. it’s like oh, am I the less attractive one which is why they all come up to me and not her? And her pointing it out.. saying “I don’t understand why they all go up to you and not me” like oh, I thought I was just attractive and people have different taste in people sometimes they like me and sometimes they like her… no other reason. Ahhhh im ranting now!

[Asker]

I had a friend like this before and that’s what ended up happening.. she would try to embarrass me in front of guys I liked and brush it off as just trying to banter. Why can’t some women just be more confident and not prioritize what a man thinks!

You have to try to work things out talk out with your friend

Immature or insecure, or both.
