My advice is to get brave, change your telephone number, and get some new friends based upon mutual kindness and intersts "in common".
Or you could just act like an adult and tell her that her behavior bothers you. Dropping your friends with no explanation without communicating why there is a problem is childish. Just sit her down, tell her that you need her to listen and explain. If she doesn't change or want to hear your issues, then the above advice is appropriate. If the results are positive, you've saved a friendship.
