Okay she has always been my best friend, but she can be soo immature and really embarressing and it drives me crazy. And i tell her that shes immature. Ive always felt wierd opening up to her or telling her you know "secrets". (like talking about boys our partying or the how far have you gone thing.) We are more like the hanging out watching the t.v. or with the whole group of friends thing. When we do hang out with other people together everybody loves her and shes like the center of the croud and it makes me super jelous. And every body tells her everything in there lives and ect. I just dont know what to do, i hate opening up to her and it seems like shes better friends with them when we both know we are best friends. Well any advice that would be great! But please no rude comments.

There are lots of reasons you might have for not telling her: everyone else tells her things, she might gossip about what you say, she might not take you seriously, and so on.
Open up to her only if you feel like it. Is she asking you to open up to her? Maybe there are other reasons that she seems to be better friends with people besides you. Do you show her as much attention as they do? That could be a reason.
Don't do anything just to get more "popular" in this person's eyes. Try to become her friend because you WANT to. You wish that people would show you more attention, and that's what is blocking you mostly from getting closer to this person. Don't focus your attention on the attention she's getting, but focus on being a good friend. That may attract more people to you.
