He asked me out.my boyfriends best friend and me were really good friends before me and my boyfriend started dating, and now it's almost like he hates me! Me and my bf' s best friend talked all the time , then when me and my boyfriend started dating , he started talking bad about me to my boyfriend, and he even lied on me! He told my boyfriend that I slapped his butt !!! Well now days he will try not to look at me if I'm with my boyfriend. He told my boyfriend that I was clingy , so how do I prove him wrong? I text my boyfriend every day . We hang out at least two days a week , and he text me back most of the Time , but when he don't I go insane , but I don't say anything to him about it. What should I do about my boyfriends best friend? And how do I keep our relationship together without being too clingy?

Honeypie is spot on... the Best friend is jealous.. he has a thing for you and wants you so he's trying to get between you and the boyfriend.
Ignore the best friend.
also i agree if you are ALWAYS the one to start the conversation, let him chase you a bit (the boyfriend)
and if he does not respond to a text you sent... LET IT go.
critical and important things should be handled by phone calls anyway.

I think your BF's BF had a crush on you and THEN you started dating his best friend. The guy is petty and bitter. And he is trying to drive a wedge in between YOU and your BF.
You don't have to PROVE his friend wrong. WHO the HECK cares what that guy thinks? YOU are not dating him. OK?!
But IF you are ALWAYS the one to text first, ease up a little, let your BF take the lead here and there.
If your BF mention that HE thinks you are clingy, ASK him to give examples. It's the best way to "fix" things by knowing the problem.
Maybe you should talk to your BF and suggest that your relationship is not really any of his BF's business? That you rather your BF discuss anything he is unhappy about with you. I would NOT mention that the "friend" maybe had the "hots" for you, but I do think that is the major part of the reason.
And I would avoid the "best friend' as mush as possible, but still be polite when you HAVE to be around him.
