THE FRIDAY ADVICE FORUM: THE LDR

Dear Naked Readers,
Okay, so I dated this boy my senior year of high school. I loved him with all of my heart and felt that we were absolutely IN LOVE. Well. when I went away to school and the distance threw a wrench in our relationship. I eventually got frustrated and ended it. It's been close to a year of on and off "trying" to be friends, but we are still miles apart. Now I have a new boyfriend I met at home who is wonderful. I never intended on doing a LDR again, but when it came to going to school (new school, I transferred for my major) we couldn't muster up the need to break up. Well, ironically my new school is in Baton Rouge, LA and my ex now lives in New Orleans. My problem is I didn't think I had feelings for my ex any more, but I saw in when I was in the Big Easy last week and realized I missed him a lot. I really like this new guy-- he's great -- but the connection I have with my ex in irreplaceable. I feel like "The Notebook," I have a great very nice guy but my ex is who I'm in love with and want to be with. What do I do? I REALLY DONT WANT TO BREAK UP WITH MY BOYFRIEND, but honestly I know eventually something is going to happen with my ex and I don't want to be a cheater. What do I do?
