The thing is, recently I have been hooking up with one of my best guy friends, who also happens to be my ex who I was in love with. I know that he really liked me, but he never truly fell in love with me the way I did for him. He's also the type of guy who has always seemed to like being with someone. The thing is, we had a falling out and went through some pretty bad stuff after the breakup, and now I feel like he's changed but most of my friends don't. Everytime I'm with him I feel like I can tell him anything and he does the same with me, and right now I am his closest friend. He talks to me every night and sees me every weekend, on top of school. I'm really scared that I will develop those feelings for him again because I really don't want to get hurt. When we hang out, most of the time it's just to 'hang out', not the physical fooling around and it's like we're basically going out already, there's just no label to it. Considering this is my last year of high school, I really don't want to be distracted from my priorities. Is there any way that I can prevent myself from falling for him again? I have tried not being too close to him, and that lasted for a few months but he was very persistent in trying to get back into my life and be my friend again that now I'm afraid I will always start to rely on him. What should I do?

 This will take some mental willpower on your part. If he's a good friend to you and you don't want to lose him, I wouldn't try immediately to cut him out of your life. While you're with him, you need to be careful and always keep in the front of your mind that you have your priorities. When you start to feel those feelings, remember what you went through with him before.
Basically, keep a clear head. :)
