>Wanting a slice of that cheese pizza

My best friend has turned into a monster because of cosplay. She only got into it a few years ago, and even then it was solely for entering competitions instead of doing it for the fun of it. Now she's completely obsessed with online fame and focused on nothing but facebook page likes and people feeding her ever-expanding ego. I feel like she rode my coat-tails enough as an established cosplayer in the community to get what she wanted, and the second she began eclipsing me she threw me away.

She's ruined so many wonderful conventions and cosplay opportunities with me with her awful attitude and selfish personality. The worst part is that even though she's a horrendously sore loser and really mean to people she doesn't like, she's a 'darling' of the community because her (very fake) public persona is so overly sweet. She keeps doing incredibly petty shit and the worst part is that she no longer wants anything to do with me because she wants to work 'solo' and 'expand her brand'.

I just want my goofy, funny and lighthearted friend back, not the fame-hungry mean person she became the second her fb page got thousands more likes than mine.
