I was with my long term boyfriend, let's call him Bob, for 2 years. He was my first love, we swapped virginities, he was truly my best friend and the person who knew me better than anyone. This fall he headed off for college a few hours away, and I remained in our hometown for my senior year of high school.

I developed a crush on another dude, let's call him Joe. I told myself that if I even had a small crush on Joe, my love for Bob couldn't be real. Now it's a few months later. My crush on Joe didn't last, but I ruined my relationship with Bob over it. Bob and I still talk daily and are still close, even though we broke up. After encouragement from my family and friends to get over Bob, I've started seeing a completely different guy, who is really nice and everything.

The trouble is that I can't stop thinking about Bob. I think I still have feelings for him, and I keep wondering if I should pursue getting back together with him and trying to rekindle what we had. It was a really good relationship and I don't know why I ever thought that someone else could offer me more. But should I just get over it? But Bob still wants to get back together with me as well...

I ended my long-term relationship over a crush that didn't last. Is it possible that I loved my long-term bf all along?
