TITLE: [26M] my best friend [21F] doesn't think we should hang out alone together any more
POST: So basically it's like this. I've know this girl for a little under 2 years. Our relationship  has been complicated for most of that, and was made more complicated when she started seeing her boyfriend, about 8 months ago. Things have only started to return to normal between us in recent months, and while I still rather like her, I'm satisfied just being her friend, and am looking for other relationships. I'm still extremely fond of her as a person, and I consider her my best friend. 

Unfortunately circumstances are such that we've never seen eachother in person very often (as in, several months at a time). So I very much look forward to the rare chances we do get to spend together. But today she tells me that she'd "prefer if we did something in a group setting". She tells me her bf has anxiety issues, and to him it's very obvious that I like her (even though I've never met/interacted with the guy in the slightest), and this apparently upsets him a lot. So in order to not upset him, she doesn't want to hang out with me alone.

So I guess I don't know how to feel / what to do about this. Like here I am, we can barely find a way to see eachother twice a year, and now we have to find a way to add a third person? I guess it just makes it feel like she's very clearly choosing him over me, like I'm obviously less important, and it feels like a bit of a stab in the heart. And on some level sure, it makes sense she's going to choose her boyfriend over me, and I get her reasoning, I would probably be the same way. But nonetheless, I'm kind of angry at the fact that just when this was starting to looking like a normal friendship, this shit has to come around.

(and just to be clear, this isn't him being manipulative, this is coming from her. She definitely considers me a good friend, and it's not like she doesn't want to hang out together, it's just less important than not upsetting the bf)
TL;DR: 
My best friend, whom I like/liked, doesn't think it's a good idea to hang out alone any more because it might upset her boyfriend
