The Difficult Choice

The Story

I decided to add my story after I couldn't find a solution. My relatives advise me various things, which confuse me even more.
As the title suggests, it's a matter of choice ... between former and current men.
My ex and I were together for 3 years. In general, we fought over nonsense, but we never had serious scandals. Although there are many defects in character, I was able to adjust them to myself and find balance. We thought of home, family. But a problem arose - a close relative of mine tried to separate us. I will not explain how because the story is long. The former was in a difficult moment - he lost his job, I almost did not go home, because I study in another city and I had accumulated commitments, and so the relationship ended .... without guilt.
I tried to talk after a while but to no avail. He was depressed.


A few months later, I met another person. He is good, funny, kind, but very closed in on himself. However, I told myself that this was my "reward" for the suffering of the separation I experienced with my ex. We did 1 year soon.


And ... the ex reappeared, started looking for me, telling me how sorry he was. At first, I didn't pay attention to him and I was even ready to write him off. But when we met, I felt that flame, that spark ... I felt that I had not stopped loving him, on the contrary, I was mistaken. I've always been his, just trying to heal old wounds with new medicine.


I'm hesitant about what to do because I don't want to hurt the new one because of past loves. But if I stay with him, am I ready to sacrifice myself? Yes, I love him, as absurd as it is, but I just don't love him as much as my ex. It is normal, even the fingers are not the same, there is no way everything is the same. I have feelings for the new, I have feelings for the old.


We have a problem with the new one - at the moment we do not live alone in a dormitory (I study in another city). I have to constantly breathe cigarette smoke because his roommates smoke inside - just the terrace is closed, there is nowhere to go ... and in the words of my "they did not want to gasify their room." We live in separate rooms with other people, but I'm not comfortable. Somehow I feel depressed. I recently read a similar story here and here it happened to me.


I started having cigarette attacks, and with pressure to ask the current one to move. He still refuses and gives deadlines until the end of the year. My health is shaky.
And at that moment the old love appeared. The love with which I have always made plans for a family. We have not spoken to him with the present, he is closed and very rarely shares. I feel he loves me, but in his own way. Just like I love him, but ... when someone else showed up, why did I hesitate? Why did I give up? Why did everything go wrong? Why... Why .... ???
Please help. Because I can't help myself. The heart says the former, the mind the present.
Thank you!
