Circling

I decided to change one of my characters. I was afraid that she looked too much like a certain character on a television show and I didn’t care to mess with that, so I changed her story. But by changing her story, I changed that of her two best friends and another character. That caused me to change the plot of a book I plan to write in the future, but by changing the plot I wonder if it is worth writing. If it isn’t then I question whether I should introduce this character in my current WIP. If I take her out, then her story is all just back-story that won’t be going into the book and it doesn’t really matter if I change it or not. So here I sit, wondering which direction to take and it all seems to go around and around in circles.
