I feel so guilty about cheating on my ex and have now broken things off with my best friend meaning losing her too. How do I get over the guilt? should I try things again with my best friend?

Most people who have cheated continue to lie and hide it sometimes for years because they want to avoid consequences. But you came clean and regained your honesty. So I feel you should be released from your guilt now. Nothing wrong with trying again with your best friend just that now it will be done the right and honest way. Good luck.

you made a mistake by cheating on your gf and by not leaving her if you were in love or wanted to be with someone else.
but you have rightfully paid the price of your mistake by losing your girlfriend and maybe suffered a damaged reputation too.
now it's time to move forward.
why not try again with your best friend? maybe she is the right one for you, just that you made the mistake of not ending your previous relationship first.

 Guilt is a hard thing to get rid of. To be honest those two people may always remind you of that guilt, however I don't see why you should lose your friend too. Remember though that there will always be that tension between you and it may conflict with a a new gf.
