I'm in love with two women and need help!?
Here goes, it's a long one... I'm a 22 year old male and I left my Ex girlfriend who was my first love about 4 months ago. I knew my Ex for 6 months before we dated for 4 and a half years and we got together when she was 14 and I was 17, for the first few years everything was magical and I would do anything to keep her. Over the last year we drifted apart and I take the blame. She often refused me sex and the spark just seemed not to be there like it used to be. I began hanging out with my guy friends more often and spending less and less time with my loving girlfriend who would often wait for me to come home to her. I knew I wasn't being a good boyfriend to her and each day I would feel really guilty when I'd come home late from a night with the guys because she was usually too tired to do what she wanted to do. She always wanted to spend time with me and I was always somewhere else.... In the last year I became basically a big piece of crap boyfriend, it wasn't intentional I just didn't give her what she deserved. It's really weird because I was always that awesome boyfriend to her, the kind of guy my Ex's girlfriends were jelious over. But for some reason I just didn't treat her right in the end. Anyway, I eventually broke it off with her when I started hanging around another girl whom I had lust for. At first breaking up with my Ex didn't phase me, it just seemed like what I wanted at the time. But after several weeks with a new girlfriend and no contact with my Ex I grew increasingly depressed to the point where all I could think about was my Ex. I felt extremely guilty for leaving her and our relationship when all she did was be there for me when I needed her! I tried visiting her and even asking her to forgive me but she understandably wanted nothing to do me. I finally felt what she felt when I crushed her heart, and it felt so bad!!!!! One of the worst things I have ever experienced!! When she found out I was in a new relationship she ended up going out with one of my close friends who told her lies about me being with other girls which upset her... This ruined my relationship with my Ex as well as my only close circle of friends. It's been really dramatic and I've tried my best to damage control everything by keeping my current relationship away from my old social group as I realized that I had a lot fewer true friends afterall. I was angry and felt so guilty for leaving my Ex for another girl that I decided it was for her best to let her go and hopefully time would heal everything. At the time I was lucky enough to have a girlfriend to support me through my breakup, but I sometimes felt our relationship just became more of a distraction from the relationship I ruined with my Ex. After a few months with my new girlfriend I fell in love with her. A lot of her personality reminds me of my Ex but at the same time she is different and I like that too. She wants sex even more than I do... something I find strange in a woman and it's nice to feel fulfilled that way for a change. Anyway I had to go over to my Ex's The other day to pickup some of my things that I had left there. My current girlfriend didn't want me to go, but I told her I had to get my stuff and she was really understanding about it, even though it made her upset. So I go over to my Ex's place and all sorts of old feelings start rushing through me but none of it was lust, it was affection, and love... I really missed her a lot and missed caring for her. I was excited and sad to pickup my things because I knew it was the last time I'd have a reason to see her. Anyways she started asking me about regrets and I told her that I completely regreted treating her badly and that I think about it all the time and it kills me....Then she tells me how she doesn't love her new boyfriend (my ex-friend who is an asshole) and that she want's me back. She even said that she only got with him to piss me off and misses me like crazy. I am totally confused because I love my Ex more than anything, she's my first love. I know it's dumb but she could do anything to me and I'd still love her, the love I have for her is completely unconditional. I still love her after she slept with my "close friend". The problem is that I really do love this new girl I'm with and she loves me back as well. I don't think it's fair to leave my new girlfriend for my Ex, but at the same time if I stay with my new girlfriend I won't even be able to talk to my Ex because she doesn't like it... which I can understand. I know this sounds lame but I feel trapped loving two women who both love me and I don't know what to do. I want my Ex to be happy and I know that if I'm always around it will make it harder for her to get over me and find somebody else, but I can't stop thinking about her when shes not there and I literally dream about her every night. I miss the old times we had and regret all the times I treated her poorly. I learned so much from her and it seems like I could never t

You just keep with your current GF and let your ex
get what she's getting with your FRIEND.
Just try learning from this one for future relationships,
women will want to fck with your head when its not going
their way.
Oh and this is what happens when you act like a cock!

I understand where you're coming from - with our experiences being so similar.
For me, it has been 10 years since I broke up with an Ex -- who was my first love, by the way.
I made the choice to move on.
It doesn't have to be the same choice for you to make. You have time. You are not married to your new girl. You don't have any other circumstances that shouldn't bring you and your ex together. You two seem like a good, understanding couple. You also appreciate your relationship and the things it has taught you. Breaking up was a good idea -- for you to realize your mistakes and not be dwelling in your sea of misery together. Going back together isn't such a bad idea either.
It really seems like you love your ex, and you are past the infatuation and lust part. You understand what a real relationship is. It's not just about sex, looks, or dates. It's also about the pains, the boredom, the sickness, the misunderstandings, the arguments, and the bad days.
In my opinion, you should give it a try. Don't do what I did, still crying about a relationship that ended 10 years ago. I do miss him and care about him.. but it really wasn't a good relationship to begin with. We tried so many times, broke up and got back together within a span of 5 years. I didn't give it another shot after that because I chose not to. I do not regret my decision. I love my present husband dearly.. and I am happy that I did not stay in that relationship with my ex.
Just don't have a relationship with two girls at the same time. That's always a bad idea.
You only realize what you've lost once it's gone. You make your own choices and you learn from your mistakes. Only you can decide what's right for you and what will make you happy.

U did the right thing. When u realized u weren't being a good boyfriend, you broke up with her. This was the right thing because 1) yall were young, so u prolly naturally wanted to see what other things were like 2) you were genuinely not interested, and you still remained faithful. You still were an ******, but at least u tried to do some damage control.
I know you love both girls, but since ur current girl prolly wouldn't want to date you if she knew how much you loved ur ex, you should be honest with her and break up with her. It is possible to love two people at once, and its natural that you still have feelings for the ex (considering that yall lasted longer than most american marriages). In my opinion, transparency is the best thing here - remain honest with both of them, go where your heart is, but take things slow if u decide to go with ur ex-girl. Things have changed and you've both matured and changed. It may work, it may not.
Also, talk to ur ex-friend. Maybe u guys can work it out over time. Its not good to burn bridges, and even though he may have technically "burned it", it doesnt hurt to try and repair it.
Things are prolly gonna be rough for the next few days/weeks but just try to remember to be honest.
If all else fails, try to have a threesome. Or be polyamorous. Prolly won't fly, but doesn't hurt to try.

You still got a lot to learn from this situation that ONLY you brought on yourself, let alone the bitter feelings for your ex.
It's a delicate situation and to say the truth it's too awkward.
It's very risky to go back to your ex 'cause it can be a trap to break you off from your present g/friend...which I relly think that you deserve.
On the other hand it's not right for your present g'friend that you leave her after you found her as your support after the first breakup.
A very difficult situation but the truth is that your selfishness shines in your letter.
