Boyfriend Vs Best friend

I am in a bit dilemma and lost. So for background context, I have two friends like called them Person A and B. Person A told me personal stuff about her arguments with her boyfriend. I told about my boyfriend about it, because with a partner I thought you can share everything together (biggest mistake of my life).

So straight to the point, I am in a group chat with Person A and B, i was sharing my argument with them I had wit my boyfriend aka showing them conversations with my boyfriend. They were giving me advice. After I was on a video call with my boyfriend as he was teaching me maths, asked me to send some maths question. I accidentally sent him screenshot of the convo I sent to person A and Person B. He confronted me and asked if I told Person A and B. I lied and said no out of fear. Then i eventually said the truth. He got angry I lied to him. So he went to Person A's boyfriend and told them about the stuff Person A told me. This caused a rift between Person A relationship with her Man.

Person A got angry that I told my boyfriend about her personal stuff and she was angry at my boyfriend. She said to me i have to pick her or my boyfriend. If i stayed with my boyfriend she will cut me off.

I sent Person A an apology email also delivered flowers to her. She came to my house, she demanded I pick her over my boyfriend. If I didn't she will tell my parents about my relationship with my boyfriend. (In my culture, dating is forbidden). I refused to break up with my man so she gave up. She won't tell my parent but she said that my boyfriend should stay away from her and her man and that I am her enemy now.
It has been 3 months now, I deeply really miss her and wish to be friends again, my man realised his actions.
what can i do to be friends with her except from breaking up with my man bc I love him alot.

You can sit down and have a calm chat with everyone that is involved in this situation. You should explain to her why you told your boyfriend about her situation and explain how out of anger your boyfriend told her boyfriend about what happened Your boyfriend should also explain from his point of view and apologise as well as yourself. Convince her that this will never happen again and that friendships go through up and downs. I cannot guarantee anything but maybe this can help. If you resolve the problem you may not be as close as before so you may have to work on gaining her trust again and being like how you were before
