I have two best friends and we've known each other since we were little kids. They both have boyfriends and there were times that I felt they basically dumped me for their boyfriends. It used to upset me A LOT, because my friends mean the world to me. Initially, I turned to my fandom friends and it really helped me cope with feeling abandoned. Eventually, like all fandoms, fandom drama came around, and my group of fandom friends all kind of drifted apart. My IRL best friends were still gaga over their boyfriends, but I was honest with them to a certain extent. I just kept saying, "Wow, we haven't seen each other in so long," whenever we did finally get together. Funnily, I used to spend a lot of time talking about my fandom friends and just a few months ago, one of my IRL friends told me that he felt like I was replacing him and our other friend with my fandom friends. It was on a night we were trying to be as honest as possible. I even told them that I agreed. I felt abandoned by them since their lives revolved around their boyfriends, and that wasn't really a bad thing cuz you know, they do have their own lives, but I did feel like they didn't seem to care about me as much, as if I could easily step back from their lives and jump back in when it was convenient for THEM because, you know, I am the single one so I am NEVER busy with anything. Most things are sorted out now. We know we can't see each other every weekend/every four days anymore, and I have come to really cherish the time I spend with the two of them. Every now and then I get peeved that someone's boyfriend kind of ruins the plans we've made, but I tend to shrug it off.
Just hang in there, OP. Be honest, but don't try to get too confrontational about it. I think the only reason why my friends and I didn't get into a shouting match and crying all hard because we were at a person's house and everyone but me (and secretly, my girl best friend) was rolling on X (stupid story that still pisses me off). Not saying you need to put yourself in a situation like that, haha, but when you do get to really just sit down and talk about your feelings. Or maybe your friend will eventually get over her "OMG Boyfriend and I are like ONE," phase. A few other friends have done that, and most have eventually learned to balance between boyfriend and friends...but don't let her continually get away with hanging out with you only cuz her boyfriend is out with his boys or they got into a fight and she needs someone there to listen to her bitch, and all your time spent with said friend is so she can talk about her boyfriend.
