How do I deal with a friend that openly amitted to having a crush on me when he has a girlfriend and a baby?

I find it hard at times to be this guys friend. He's in my work friendships group so I can't really just kick him out.

He's always nice to me even when I call him out on his shit as well. It's like I could tell him to fuck off and die and he'd still think we were best mates.

He's extremely immature and way too young to be a farther. He's only 20 years old and has a new born with his girlfriend who I was good friends with also till recently and now I know why.

His girlfriend has been on maternity and when ever I see her she blanks me and acts as if not there. I asked my other female friends about it and they said they hadn't noticed and but it was probably a misunderstanding so I ignored it.

This guy friend is always looking at other girls and commenting on them and he's always down the pub drinking and not spending time with his baby or girlfriend. Me and my best friend have called him out on this a lot and asked on nights out why he doesn't bring his girlfriend and said he's extremely lucky to have her and should treat her better.

We all say behind closed doors but he's a shit dad and boyfriend and he needs to grow up. He has no interest in being a dad and he clearly doesn't love his girlfriend he's just with her because he knows his dad would kill him if he left her with the baby.

I've even told him it's hard to be his friend at times and he doesn't care.

So the other day a girl friend tells me he likes me and I just take it as a joke and laugh it off. I mentioned it to him as we were clocking out are shift with some other friends.

He said "yes I do fancy you" I just replied "ohh hell no" and all are friends started laughing and asked how I didn't know.

I feel really sorry for his girlfriend as she deserves a lot better and I told him that to his face but just laughed it off. It explains why she doesn't talk to me now because apparently it was well known amongst are friendship group
