For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.perhaps you're a bit jealous. You half fancy her but maybe you're unsure of yourself or embarrassed about it (not clear what sex you are), but even if you're not certain of you're own feelings you wish she'd keep away from other people while you can catch your breath and make up your mind. And perhaps you're nasty to her because you're projecting your feelings about yourself on to her - you're confused so you think she should be a bit less confident about herself!
This is probably unfair on her - she sounds as if she's being true to herself and not leading you on (does she know you fancy her? I'm guessing not). It's your own feelings you have to sort out. Meantime, though - in case you do want to start something with her later - I'd stop being nasty to her, it's no way to start a relationship! You just need to learn to bite your lip - whatever you think or feel, keep it to yourself, just treat it as a private emotion that doesn't have to be shared.
It sounds to me like your best mate is simply advancing more speedily/more confident in the current social settings your experiencing. This is entirely natural as are your feelings. You should let your friend know you feel less confident and would like tips from her to help you feel more confident or simply say nothing but remind yourself why your feeling like you do, watch her for tips on how you'd like to conduct yourself in similar situatuions and remember YOU HAVE AS MUCH TO GIVE in these situations as your friend. Just because your not as loud/popular/humourous etc doesn't mean your not as worthy a person or company.
As for the attraction thing, my gut reaction is to say it's probably simply adoration, as in you admire the way she handles herself, attracts attention in the social settings and circles you're experiencing at the moment .
