Do I leave my boyfriend for my best friend?
Okay, so I've liked this guy for about the past three years. When he started dating one of my good friends, I laid off and decided to just put him in the "friend" category--realizing that he didn't think of me in any romantic way and that I'd rather keep him as a friend than risk losing him altogether.
Now I'm with a guy who I'm pretty much crazy about. I've been with him for almost three months.
All the sudden, my best guy friend, a.k.a. longtime crush that I've given up on, breaks up with his girlfriend and I hear through the grapevine that it's because he has feelings for me. When I confront him about it, he admits that it's true and that HE has also liked me for a very long time.
What the heck?! Our timing sucks. Should I just pretend I don't know? Should I stay with my current boyfriend? I think I feel mostly ticked that I only find this information now, when I'm taken. =/

You stole the words right out of my mouth. Your timing sucks, and there's not much you can do about that. It just wasn't right this time.
more importantly, you're not "taken," you're willingly in a relationship with a guy you really like. If that's not the case, then there is your problem.
If you're happy in the relationship but feel conflicted because of this other guy, you must remind yourself that they're just feelings, and you owe it to yourself and your boyfriend to give it a real shot.
But let me just end with this: I wouldn't stay in the relationship if you have uncontrollable feelings for someone else, because then neither of you will be happy.
