My friend who showed me TRP is getting pissy with me because I'm starting to build confidence around women.

He entered into a long term LTR about a year ago, and only recently has he been acting like a beta. He literally told me last week that "I've become too obsessed with getting women", "that is affecting our friendship". This is coming from a guy who I would Third wheel for all the time, I would wingman for, that I would run interference with a group of girls while he would single out one.

I'm a naturally confident person but that goes away with women, I started gaining it with women by reading the sidebar and using dating apps to just test stuff out and to see how they would react. I've been getting good enough responses that I'm ok enough to cold approach on my own.

How should I deal with a friend whos getting jealous? It kinda pissed me off
