This was in June and we hadn't spoken up until a few days ago.I have a boyfriend of 6 1/2 months and I love him so much, but we've been having some problems as of late that I won't go into.Long story short, I think I may be developing feelings for my friend again and I just want to know how to extinguish this flame before it gets out of hand.

Hello :)
As hard as it is i am afraid we cant help who we love no matter how hard we try.
Perhaps there is a certain reason that you are starting to have feelings for your ex, is it because he is flirting with you abit or being abit overly affectnate towards you.
If he is you should just make it clear to him that you have got a boyfriend and love him very much and just want to be friends. then maybe he might treat you more as a friend :)
But if its the other way round and you know that these feelings are just you, then perhaps you should just take some time and think about what made your relotionship special with your ex and why you might sort of feel like you want him back.
Perhaps compare it to you and your boyfriends relotionship and say how they are both different.
Perhaps then you might realize that you and your boyfriend are better together than you and your ex. But if you decide that perhaps you want you ex back dont just jump into it, think about what your loseing and what your gaining.
Hope this helps x
