alright well i have these two friends, Kelly and Jamie. they used to like hate each other last year. now they have all of their classes togehter and are like attached at the hip. Kelly has been my best friend for a long time. i met Jamie last year. well Kelly is the kind of person that when she finds a new buddy..she forgets about all her other friends. well kelly ans jamie have been hanging out alot lately and kelly has forgetten all about me. it doesnt help that we have only 1 class together. i get jealous really easily too. ive tried talking to kelly but she doesnt take me seriously. i say to her, "kelly im serious" and she goes "i know" with a smile on her face. im really starting to get pissed here. i dont know a way i can talk to kelly and make her take me seriously and not get mad at me. me and jamie hang out alot still so it isnt her fault. mostly kelly. i dont want to tell jamie to lay off kelly cuz then shell tell kelly and then kelly will get mad at me and everything will be bad. im really getting very mad and jealous. i dont know how i can get things back to the way they used to be. i liked it better when kelly and jamie hated each other.
That was just a first impression, from what you wrote. Listen, real friends just don't dump someone because they no longer hate some girl from last year. If she knows how jealous you are, she might just be messing with you. Girls do that, and I can't for the life of me understand why.

Sit them both down, and explain to them how you feel. Explain that, while Kelly has been your best friend, and you support that she also has other friends, tell her that you should not be forgotten about.
You can't stop them from having the same classes, but you can be more involved with them. Do more things out of school, the three of you. [ seventimesagain's advice column | Ask seventimesagain A Question ]

Let her no that you don't mind that she has new friends but not to forget you because your still her friend too. If kelly still won't be serious say "Ya know what? This friendship won't work if we can't have one serious talk together." I'm pretty sure you will get her attention if you let her know you're not fooling around. Mention that maybe you guys can hang out together so then you're not left out and it will remind kelly of why you guys were best friends.
