The reason behind your friends' behaviour is because we see things differently than women do. If a woman/man, depending on preference and orientation, moves into our space, we either are threatened or we feel that there is a more-than-friends interest. It's wrong because it doesn't always apply, and doesn't excuse your friends accusing you of being something you're not, but you have to understand it under those terms.
And, also remember--we see what we want to see
