And this is a question to get you thinking a bit. - Is it possible that you feel guilty for breaking up with the first guy? And in a kind of weird way think you will feel less guilty if you give him a second chance?

There's a few questions you need to ask yourself.
Which one are you happiest with ?
Which one do you feel most comfertable with ?
Which one can you see yourself moving forward with ?
By looking at what you've said, I would say your ex boyfriend. I think the fact that he is not your type and that you have nothing in common is irrelevant. Maybe it could be good for you to see the qualities that other people see in life, as well as your own. A somewhat learning curve. And the fact that you can't bare to see him with someone else surely shows something? Your feelings for him are obviously very strong, and i'm guessing he feels similar to what you are feeling if you were together for 8 months.
Obviously, I can't actually tell you which one to go with, nobody on here can, because we don't know these people, or how exactly you feel for them. I think you need to put some thought into it before you make your decision. Go with whoever makes you happiest.

I think u need some time out! Tell them both u needa think and u want some space. So what you and ur ex dont have anything in common. Ever heard of the saying opposites attract. How well do u know the new guy also? i think u needa be young free and single for a while. Going from relationship to relationship like that isnt good for anyone. You needa breath. Good luck. x
