Guy Situation

About 3 months ago i met this guythrough a  friend of mine and we insantly hit it of... I really felt like we had a special bond between us, and even my friends told me the way he looked at me. He made me feel butterfies in my stomach when he touched my hand and he flirted like A Lot! we stated talking in facebook etc It was well and good until i felt that he wasn't into me anymore as he was talking to me in short answers etc. So i stopped cause I didn't want to force him.

I know nothing happened between us but i felt something between us, somethig special i never felt with anyone else before. I saw him with other girls and it hurt, so i tried to move on and stated dating this guy. A very nice gentleman who makes me feel good about myself and apparently really likes me. But the thing is I'm scared that i am not totally over the other guy and i dont want to lead him on and then leave him cause he genuinely doesn't deaerve it. I like him but i think i nees time to get over the other guy completely before.

I know its dumb but its breaking me inside because I don't know what to do, cause my gut tells me to stop dating him but my mind tells me to suppress that and maybe I'll forget about the other guy and continue to date this one, but I don't know honestly. Any suggestions?
