It's probably just me, but I can smell the follow-up secret six months from now, from the other side.

"I was a BNF in a rather popular fandom for a series by an insanely popular author, but I also wrote fanfiction for a lesser known series by the same author. I got tired of the constant attention in the larger fandom, so I decided to just hang out in the smaller fandom. Pretty soon I clicked with someone in the fandom who seemed to share a bunch of my interests outside of said fandom, which was a refreshing change. Usually when I talk to someone in the fandom, it's always about my fanfiction, or some over-the-top praise for something mundane because *BNF status*. My BNF status never came up with this friend, I never thought to bring it up, and I didn't want to make a big deal out of it. Looking back, maybe I should have? We went from chatting each other up almost every day to maybe once every two weeks, and even then, it's just a passing "hi." It sucks because I feel like I'm losing a really good friend and I don't know why. Maybe they never knew about me being a BNF. Maybe I should have brought it up. But then, maybe I never would have gotten to know an awesome person."

OP, if you're the type who despises living in someone else's shadow, then go get some nice things for yourself while maintaining this friendship. For the love of Cadbury eggs, don't let your insecurities and personal inadequacies become HER problems. Your friendship is far more important than the potential opinions some nosy jealous gossipy loser busybody haters, is it not?
