Ok so I feel like a loser asking for advice, but yea, I really need some so here goes.
Since my freshman year I have had a crush on this one guy, S. We've hooked up on and off for the last two years but this semester it's become like a regular thing. He doesn't want a relationship and I don't want one with HIM but I do want a relationship. However something about him to me is just really like hard to let go of and I don't know why. He is an asshole a lot of the time, but the times when he's sweet seem to make up for it. Now I know the smart thing is to say, I'm too good for him blah blah just move on but I am trying so hard and I feel like I can't b/c I want him to be in my life in at least some little way. The thought of like never kissing him ever again though scares me b/c I just can't fathom that.
So now enter my ex boyfriend, D. He and I broke up b/c of a lot of reasons but mainly b/c it was moving too fast and neither of us was ready for that at the time. Now we both are and we want to be together but he has a HUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGEEEE dillema going on right now. I want to be there for him and help him through it, but it's a seriously complicated scary situation. I'm the only person he has told outside of his fraternity and he expected me to freak out and like run away I guess, and no part of me wants to do that, I just don't know how we're going to get through this.
So what do I do? I want to be with both guys. S doesn't want a relationship but as soon as I mention anything about any other guy he becomes so jealous and possessive. And I know I'm dumb for thinking this, but I see that as his way of showing me that he cares. STUPID I know.
Ok so yea, advice...please. 
I can't believe I just typed all this out on here. Sorry guys.

FAB! No sadness/confusion for you! Here's my take, whether you want it or not-
S. is a fuck buddy. You know that, b/c you said you don't want a relationship with him. He's not that quality guy...he's Mr. Right now. Which is fine, except that you have history w/D. and you guys both want to be together. Of course there's a part of S. that cares about you....but regardless, he's an ass who is kind of a hobby for you. You're not dumb for thinking anything....in some weird way that IS his way of showing he cares- he cares that he's not going to be getting your attention, even though he hasn't done the same for you. And it will be hard to stop kicking it with him b/c old habits die hard...but until you do, D. isn't going to happen.
Don't freak out about the situation with D. You care about him a lot, he cares about you, and I don't know if you believe in fate but I DO and the night you and I met (
) was fate for that and more importantly, for the 2 of you. Something threw him in front of you. He was put there b/c he needs you now....unfortunately any romance is going to have to wait between you guys until he gets his shit straightened around. That doesn't mean it won't happen, it just means he needs you as a friend, first.
Good luck, and I'm always here to talk to!
