hang out around your boyfriend more when he's around.

well, since he's your best friend, you should be able to talk about anything, right? so just tell him how you feel, he will understand.

well if he really is your best friend be honest with him..he should listen to you...he might not realize what he's doing...or he could secretly like you...and as for you boyfriend tell him not nothing is going on between you and ur friend and if he still don't believe then obviously he doesn't trust you enough..

It sounds like your best friend just might have developed a crush on you, so when you talk to him, BE GENTLE.

You do need to talk to him. He needs to know that you love your boyfriend, and that his flirting with you is making your boyfriend jealous and suspicious. He needs to know that you care about him, but just as a friend.

If you go about this correctly, you should be able to save the friendship. Just consider his feelings when you talk to your best friend. Make the conversation short and sweet.

He's your best friend, and he cares about you a lot. He should be able to respect you enough to lay off the flirting, since you have a boyfriend.

Look at it from his point of view. You're a gorgeous girl whom he's got a crush on. You're about to tell him that he can't have you. That's going to hurt. But he cares about you. So he'll respect you, and stop flirting. But it'll take a while for him to get over his crush, if it ever goes away.

Tell him you only like him as a friend and nothing more. That you really care about him, and love him, but not in a bf kinda way. Let him know that you love your bf, and that he will never come between you 2, but that he thinks you are cheating on him. And that you dont want to have to choose. Hope it helps

Tell your friend that you love your boyfriend, and would really appreciate it if he stopped flirting. Then, convince your boyfriend that you only love him. Besta Luck

best friends-
You should be honest. You don't want to lead him on. Tell him that you care about him...but only as a friend. Make sure to make it clear that you want your friendship to last, but you're not intestested in him romantically. If he's a good friend, he should understand.

You should just tell him. He's your best friend, he should respect what you want. Just be like "My boyfriend is suspecting things about me and you, so can you please stop acting all flirty with me" That works, and its nice...have a convo about it and explain to him everything and you can work things out.
