Normally I would say never ditch your best friend for a man. But in this case it’s different because she isn’t acting like a best friend. She obviously finds him attractive, which she can’t help. But flirting with him behind your back is a great big no-no. As she is also lying about it by saying that she doesn’t like him, it proves that she knows she has crossed the line. You could speak to her about it and give her one chance. But if it was me, I wouldn’t be able to trust her after this.

Tell your boyfriend that your best friend is flirting with him, acting like she likes him BUT is going around telling other people that she has no feelings for him (aka could care less about him). If he is a good guy will be peeved that he is getting used.
I'd rip my best friend a new one if she flirted with my boyfriend. That's temptation from a friendly source and so wrong. I'd have my gun to her head if it were my husband. I dont tolerate such immoral behavior. Thats crossing marital boundaries.

You're my best friend and I don't want our friendship to suffer. Please be up front and honest with me." If she lies, then you'd have to decide if she's best friend material. I would hate to say ditch her, because you should never ditch your BFF for a guy, but if you can't trust her, she's not really your BFF.
