What am I looking for?

with such
a situation.

developer is
not the same role if this ever gets to court. My employer may
argued that
interaction design is just the upfront part of coding so it is a
realistic
job change.
My primary advice is that you need options. You need to know that you
can, at any time, pick up and change your job to an organization that
will give you positive challenges and help you grow your career.
If you don't think that's an option, you'll feel trapped where ever
you are. When you're trapped, it's hard to stay positive, even during
the hardest of times (and there *will* be hard times, where ever you
are).
If you think that's an option, then you're deciding to stay because
*you* want to stay. You'll communicate that with everything you say
and do.
So, my primary advice to you is to explore your options. Right now, in
the general area of user experience and the specific discipline of
interaction design, demand for talent has never been higher.
It sounds like finding other opportunities should be a priority for
you. Explore what all your choices are.
Then decide if your current position is the one that's best for you.
