New bf & ex Options

[brthtkrsmlfkr]

Okay, I don't know what I should do. A couple of months ago I was dating this guy and we had one of those on again off again relationships. I really liked him & he was the first guy to take my breath away, to be corny. We broke up after a while because I was scared to let him in. We were still friends and hung out and everything. That was about two months ago. Now about three weeks ago, he came over and we hung out. We ended up in a tickle fight, ending with me on top of him just kinda staring at him. Later that night, I told him I still had feelings for him and he told me he had given up on me and liked someone else. So basically, I was crushed.

Then like a month ago, I started talking to one of my ex's friends who I had a class with last year. We started to like each other and started dating about a week ago. Now, he's a really nice guy & I know he would be very good for me. He's polite, cares about me, and really likes me. But he doesn't give me butterflies or take my breath away. And I don't think I'm completely over my ex.

Every night when I'm trying to sleep I end up thinking about my ex and all the fun times we had. Just everything about him. I try really hard to not think about him because I feel bad since I have a bf and all. I've stopped talking to my ex and I've stopped going to his myspace and everything. I'm trying really really hard to get over him so I can have a good relationship with my boyfriend.

I just don't know what to do. I can't stop thinking about my ex. I'm getting no sleep at night because he's all I can think about. I really miss him. And I can't tell my bf because it would crush him and start so much drama.

So, what do I do? Try really hard to forget my ex or tell my bf & just be single so I can work everything out?

That kind of how it was with me. I was in a pretty long relationship with my ex, and I was devistated when we broke up. We started talking again and almost picked things back up a month or two later, but then I met my current boyfriend. I ended things completely with my ex, because I was afraid of him hurting me again, and I started dating my current boyfriend. For a while I wasn't sure if I was over my ex, and it lasted a while. I've been with my boyfriend for 8 months now, and I'm very, very happy with him. I'm glad I didn't get back with my ex, because I know things would never have worked out a second time. The only thing I regret is how I started things with my boyfriend so soon after getting out of a relationship... I wish I would have waited a little longer, but things worked out how they were supposed to, I guess. We're going strong and we're both very happy with each other.

Idk if that helped, but... either way, I know what you're going through. Take your time... don't rush anything if you're not completely sure that's what you want to do, but you said your ex is over you, so... just try and focus on moving on. I hope this new relationship isn't just a rebound.

Good luck. (Sorry this is kind of hard to understand, it's pretty late and I'm beat.)
