ok, you are too young for this but,

1. is it possible for you and your ex to be together physically?

2. does he love you the same way?

if yes then its a no-brainer... get back together.

if no then you need to move on with your life and if you like the new guy then redirect the love to him...or break it off.

agonyauntlisaxxxx agony auntStay with the guy you're now with, it's normal to still have a bit of love for you're ex. A part of me will always love mine but I'm with somsone else now and my heart is with him. Create new memories, have a new life with the guy u're with now. xx

rcn agony auntYour sort of young to understand this. I have teen girls too, and I know you all think you're a walking relationship encyclopedia.

I tell it like this. My ex, and daughters mother, lives over 800 miles away. I still love her. I do have my daughter to raise myself, so it's not love for her in the way of trying to just bring a family together. I know I will always love her, but she and I are too different to be together.

Just because you still love him, and will always have those memories of the time you spent, doesn't mean you can't develop new memories with this other person.

well, if youre still in love with your ex, then it really isnt too fair to stay with the boy youre with.. ive had a similar situation, but i had to end it because my heart wasn't there, and that's pretty much the most important thing in a relationship.. Do you what you want to do, the feelings for your ex might fade in time, or they won't, OR your ex might eventually come around. You just have to weigh the possibilities and decide what you want more and stuff. :] youll do the right thing.

rose the relationship solver agony aunti was in the very same position as you. i was still in love with my ex but you will lose him in your mind when you are round your new boyfriend. Don't let your new boyfriend know or this won't be good. Good luck

I think you should get your ex back somehow, I'm sure he still has the same feelings for you, that is if he really loved you. in the first place. Which if he dated you for that amount of time he must have felt something. I'm sure hes thinking about you as much as you are him. Talk to him call him, text him, go to his house and just tell him how you really feel. I know he still wants you back. I wish you the best of luck things will be ok :-)
