Lying is not a good way to start over. Your BF has a right to know especially since you are in a friendship with this other man. He may not like it and you may end up spitting up but he still has the right to know.

mylassie10 agony auntI just had this experience and my boyfriend and I are now broken up. I had gone a few dates with someone when we were broken up. When my ex and I decided to see each other again and try to work things out, I had told him. He got mad but I thought we would be ok and move on from it. A few days ago, he went on a date and told me. We weren't official but he knew I wanted to work things out and he had to go be spiteful and ruin everything. So my advice...don't tell him.

If this guy is still a friend of yours, its definitely his business to know.

I agree with Bunny and Q, but I feel like in a healthy relationship, if it's going to be long-term, you should tell him if you're going to feel guilty about it. Hopefully, if he loves you, he'll understand. On the other hand, you're 16-17, so I highly doubt this is the man you're going to marry someday so it doesn't really matter.

If you are still friends with this other guy then it's wrong to let your boyfriend think there was never anything sexual between you and him.

BunnyTee agony auntWhatever you did in the span of time you were split from your ex, stands alone, you weren't "with" your ex and so weren't obligated to remain exclusive to him on any level.

I see no reason why you need to confess this to anyone. I see nothing "wrong". Now, if your guy asks you, then you should be honest and tell him. But if it doesn't need saying why bring it up?

If the two of you were broken up at the time, it's none of your boyfriends business who you were with.
