I know exactly how you feel currently, it seriously is one of the most hated places to be in. You are actually very luck you are just in a love triangle, oh my mind hurt after that. I have been in what I call love loops, which is basically a love square with branches. Not fun, not fun at all.

I hope you have already ruled out a few options which are obvious...

#1: you can't date both of them, even if they all agree and you have a clump it doesn't work.
#2: don't cheat on your present boyfriend
#3: okay, this one I'm just messing but my friend came up with this one. Have a six thing, with the three of you another couple and a finger puppet cow called moomoo.

In love triangles the key is communication, and the worst but most important part is the final decision. First let everyone know whats going on so no one is lost and is taken by a huge surprise. Then do some thinking of your own, decisions like these are hard but we all get through them. Think about your relationship with both of them, how that can change. Now remember when two people break up very rarely do they stay close friends, you never know whats going to happen but do you want to risk losing your friend if it doesn't last. Which do you feel more comfortable with, and which do you see yourself with more.

Then comes communication, start asking all the right questions. Like what each one looks for in a person, or what they want in a relationship with you. Their answers can be very convincing. See which one can connect with you most and which appeals to you.

Also watch how they react to the situation, even if you are not religious the seven deadly sins are still very important in life. If your boyfriend freaks out and gets pissed at you for even considering your friend then he could get angry for the simplest things and jealous over every guy. Is that really what you want in a relationship.

The decision is ultimately up to you but let them try to convince you of why they should be your partner in life. I really hope this helps you figure out which person is best for you. best of luck and hope you don't get into this situation too often.
