I like my boyfriends friend and I don't know what to do?

So here it goes this story may be long, crazy and strange. and please don't be rude believe me i already feel weird enough...

okay so i have been with my bf for 2yrs (we will call him bob) and i've known my bf's friend for id say a 1 1/2

(we will call him steve. Now i've always had a crush on steve from the first time i met him. And about a month back me and my bf bob took a break and i had sex with steve a few times. nothing really came of it obviously since im still with bob and quite frankly i never thought anything would because they are friends after all. and plus i think steve is scared of bob!Anyways we all hang out together all the time and i feel like their is an awkward tension steve will flirt (now when i say flirting its not super obvious or touchy,im guessing because my bf is right there) with me, carry on pointless conversations just to try to talk to me, makes alot of eye contact, he always makes me laugh. I dont know what is going on. I'm not happy with my boyfriend and haven't been for awhile. Does it seem like Steve likes me????? What should i do!??

Thank you CaringGuy. I'm just trying to sort things out and I would leave Bob but right now that is a tough situation to just walk away from.

Dump your boyfriend and move on. You don't really love Bob, and you've not been happy with him for a while. So what's the point in staying in a relationship with a guy who you're not happy with. You might as well let him go so he can find someone else, and then you can find someone else as well.

But the one person you shouldn't go to is Steve. A guy who is willing to sleep with his best friend's girl so quickly without any real care that the relationship is on a break isn't a guy you can really trust. There is a code between friends, and he broke it. Which means that he would be willing to hurt you too.
