<human>: First off, I never intended to be the other guy and refuse to be him. We have done absolutely nothing aside from confess to being into each other.

Background: We met because she was friends with my ex. She lives out of State but only a state away. My ex and her already have a very little of a relationship and wouldn't devastate anyone if we were to date. Over the past few years we've become close friends and I feel as though she comes to me for support the way I go to her.

The issue: Recently we confessed to each other a mutual interest in the idea of being with each other.  She said that she felt I was cute and I said something along the lines of I met the wrong friend or something along those lines. We spent the next few hours just talking about what if.  Well the other day her Live-in boyfriend and her had a discussion about their relationship. This dude hasn't exactly been the prime example of how a man should treat a woman.  He has cheated on her several times in their 4 year relationship. (I've known her about 3 years).  Lied to her about her being his first. She constantly finds out more. (The reason we even started talking about the idea of us was because she found another person he had not told her about.). But to be honest he is a really likable guy.  Done some shitty things but is likable.

I told her whatever she chooses to do I'll support her decision and that'll be it. Well he apparently told he something that made everything seem clear to her. She told me she's going to stay with him for now. And I guess I have to be okay with that.

If anyone I know is reading this, (Doubtful) I was just looking for advice not trying to out or hurt anyone that's why I used a throw away.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: friend and I admit to liking each other. Her cheating boyfriend found a way to make her stay. I'm just chillen I guess
