However I have a friend who can't seem to accept this, she was always the more assertive one and now I've got more confident she seems to put me down more. It really gets me down and puts me in a foul mood for some time. It's proven to be bad with guys as I try to come across as confident but when they see me with her they think I'm a bit pathetic. I know this question isn't really to do with love etc but this issue has been affecting my love life and how other people especially guys see me. What should I do after all she is still my friend ?

You've probably stolen her thunder and now get the attention while she has slipped into the background and she doesn't like it. Jealousy.
Carry on as you are, it's not your problem, it's hers. The guys will soon see that.
