My "best friend" and I?

My "best friend" and I?
My friend and I had been best friends since our early years of high school, I'm a grade higher than her. Background on her: Her mom was raped and had her in the military, she vowed to take care and love this girl all her heart. She doesn't have a father because all the men were masked so her mom doesn't know who the father is. Fast forward to 15 years when we met. We were inseparable, we did everything together, talked about everything and it was great. Until, I noticed she would get annoyed with whatever I do that isn't to her liking. Like when we do something, it seems to her that I do it better, and she'd get quiet and frustrated, and won't talk to anyone. She'll vent about it on her online journal, and we'll be fine again. Then as the years went on, she became increasingly annoyed with me about anything. It got to the point where I have to watch my mouth around her. With me, I'm a very friendly outgoing person, I'm always positive and had a lot of friends. She was very reserved and she doesn't really feel comfortable with herself around hearing people (we're both hard of hearing). She'll shut down and stuff. I never judged her, but going out with her can be frustrating because now we're both at the same college across the US, (I left first), whenever we go out, she becomes quiet and she'll find any excuse to leave. Then she'll vent about it on her Twitter or Tumblr.

For awhile, I noticed that her posts was always about me. I never posted negatively about anyone, nor did have anything bad to say about them no matter how much if I'm annoyed. I just tend to let it go. She'll bash about anything bad on her social network. Then I became distant after this school year started, new job on campus, making new friends, being cheer captain in college, so I've became busy all the time and our friendship just grew apart, nothing on bad terms in my opinion. It just naturally happened. Then she still continues to bash about me. Then once I saw something on her tumblr so nasty and mean about me, I confronted her about it, and she apologized and things were fine. I got over it quickly but it did hurt. Then after that our friendship grew apart more, and she still continued to do this online. She deleted me off her facebook. I didn't say anything because I didn't care honestly. It's just facebook. Then she posted on twitter with no names, asking if I noticed that she deleted me off her facebook or I just don't care. I didn't care because she was still following me on tumblr and twitter.

My teacher said that she has hurt inside because of not knowing her true identity of knowing who she is because she doesn't know her father, she's jealous of me and looks up to me, and so she manipulates to get others pity her. There were many times where a bunch of friends and I would invite her places over the year, then we stopped because she turns down everything or she'll show up for a few mins, then come up that she's feeling sick, and she'll leave. We all felt that she's going to lose us because of her lack of attempts to connect with us. And now she haven't been home for longer than a week because she missed her boyfriend. I've seen her tumblr that recent summer when she stayed home for the summer, she was a wreck and I was so confused.

I wanted your opinion, sorry if it's long but I wanted to hear your opinion.
Thanks!

Honestly she sounds like a high maintenance friend. She wants the drama rather good or bad. Give it to her if u accept her for her change. Just make it positive. This is who she is now. If u accept it then you need to make time for her. At least once a week. A day out just the two of u. I would delete myself from her Facebook and other social accounts. If u can't see what she writes then it doesn't matter.when you guys go out stay active. It'll better help her talk more positive about u.
