tricky situation - i'd love some advice

okay... so i'm still mad for my ex-boyfriend, even though we broke up almost a year ago. We try to stay friends, and we're still very close - but theres always that tension because i dont really know whats between us now. anyhow, at new years, we were at different parties. i was really kind of feeling down, and i ended up hooking up with one of my best male friends. unfortunately, it turned out the bloke actually has liked me for months! i had no idea. so now i feel awful and i keep avoiding the guy i hooked up with, because i feel so awkward about it and so on. i told my ex-boyfriend about the situation (though not the guys name) and now he wants to hang out with me and so on... i dont really know what to do with either guy!
Explain it to him. Tell him you still like your ex (that should send him running for the hills). I mean it's a bit harsh, but you didn't know that he liked you that much and wasn't just looking for a NY kiss etc. Then, once that's settled down try talking to your ex and see how things go...

yeah, i think that's what i ought to do... i just feel awful, my friend and i were really close, but i had NO idea he had feelings for me. He made the first move, and i went with it... but then i was like "no we cant do this" and he was REALLY upset/pissed off... i feel like such a bitch but i still love my ex... even though i doubt we would get back together. i just didnt want to hurt my friend...gahhh.
