You can't always get what you want

I'm in a bit of confusion right now. As you all know, I still love my ex boyfriend Emiel very much, and I miss him like hell. I've been talking to him over the internet quite a bit this past week, and I enjoyed that very much.

On the other hand, as I mentioned before, there's this new guy I really like. I'm not going to mention his name, but rest assured he's cool as hell. Actually, he's cool enough to be a new entry for a future boyfriend. He's a great guy and I instantly liked him as I met him, so that's a good start.

The thing is, should I really get things started with a new guy while I'm still dealing with stuff concerning my ex boyfriend? Is it fair to go along with all this while I don't even know myself where I stand, relationship-wise? Can I really be able already to start all over again with a new significant other? I really don't know... It's been bugging me for a couple of days now (mind me not posting) and I just can't seem to come to a resolution. I don't want to stand the risk of hurting this new guy in case all goes wrong, but on the other hand, I don't want to be waiting and waiting for Emiel for the rest of my life as well. It's just one big case of mystery. Like the title of this post says: you can't always get what you want.
