I understand that you have told her that no one is taking her place, but you need to do it extremely sincerely, and I don't think that you should get annoyed with her because generally when people get like that it's because they are feeling left out or maybe even having a low self esteem. If you have more friends than her, then that maybe one reason. So just talk to her. One on one and in person and see what that does for you.

I learned this from experience.. my friend Gabii got the same way as your friend from 3 or 4 years old and she left a voicemail saying oh my gosh your boyfriend Dylan is like taking my place. I made them hang out with me but didnt tell Gabii that Dylan was going to be there and didnt tell Dylan that Gabii was going to be there. It worked and they both reliezed how important they are to me. Then if this doesnt work and your friend is still jealous then talk it out with her and if she isnt being understanding dont talk to her for a few days. This will be hard but dont give in she will respect your decision of not talking.
