She shouldnt have to choose between a friend and person that loves her so much. there something wrong there.

Tell him you are not at all pleased with the situation. If that was me i would give it another six months after letting him know how i feel then i would be off. Sorry, but my main saying is: Life is too short. stop wasting another minute and talk to him.
take care

Tell him you would like to be a priority in his life. That you understand that he has a close relationship with his friend, and you don't want him to ditch that, but you do think that his priority should be to you rather than to his friend.
Then be quiet and listen to what he says. If he defends what he's doing, leave him. Things aren't going to change, and you'll always be second fiddle. You deserve better.
Good luck.
