Confused Feelings...suggestions?

Hey Everyone, just thought I would ask my advice about a problem I recently am experiencing.

 

For about two years now, I have been dating the same girl.  She is sweet, caring, and she really likes me, and I seem to like her as well.  But here is the problem.  I know another girl, a wee bit older than me, that I seem to have a much better connection with.  It seems as if we would be a better couple. 

 

My problem stems from this.  The love I can feel in one relationship, I just can't seem to put out.  However, that same love and affection that she feels for me, I feel for this other girl that I am not dating,  I am afraid of breaking my gf's heart, and yet at the same time this other girl is eating away at me. 

 

It really is a strange feeling.  Every night I wonder what it would take for me to let my old gf go, and try to date this new girl.  Yet i know that problems would arise.  You see, I am only a senior in High school, this girl is going into Sophmore year in college.  The problem I have is having her believe that my maturity level is high enough to handle this type of decision.  I know this other girl too well to think just asking her out will do anything;  she is very stingy when it comes to dating other guys and she will only wait for the perfect moment.

 

So, my friends, I ask you this simple question.  I have a burning passion for one girl, and yet I am dating another I believed to have feelings for but now find that my fire burns stronger for another.  What course of action do you believe I should take?  Also, keep in mind I have thought about using college next year as an advantage (being a plus one of my higher colleges is the other girl's college right now; the only problem being that girl will be a junior when i am a freshman in college).  I was thinking of using that seperation to break off the current relationship, and then starting anew with this new girl.  Any suggestsions?  Really, i have held this in for long enough.

Turn off the television and teach your children how to think.

You are doing your current girlfriend a disservice by continuing to date her when your heart is not in it.

No one wants to be treated to a 'pity date.'

You need to make a clean break with your current girlfriend and then you need to grow up. That's right, I said "grow up."

You need to grow up because you have built this other girl up in your head until you find yourself holding her image up in your mind's eye as a shining beacon of possibility.

This is crap. The more likely scenario is that this older woman will never think of you as anything but a close friend. And the more you attempt to prove yourself worthy, the more she will withdraw.

Please focus on yourself, for now. Take the time to learn to love yourself. Find out what makes you tick. Who are you? What are your hopes, your dreams, your goals?

Where do you see yourself in two years? In five? Twelve?

If your first impulse is to answer and put one of these women in the picture, that is a sure sign that you are not old enough to be with either one - because it is only by fully knowing yourself (and being at peace with yourself) that you will be able to share your life with someone else.

If you think things can't get worse it's probably only because you lack sufficient imagination.

I think you are entirely too young to be so involved with EITHER girl.  You are in high school so you need to have other experiences. 

Don't use the excuse though that you don't want to break up with your girl friend because you don't want to hurt her.  Just break it off and move along.  Whether the "other" girl will be available or not isn't relavant.  Staying in a relationship for the sake of a relationship is cheating youself and your girlfriend.  It's also a bad habit to start.  You talk about your maturity level and I am here to tell you that ending relationships is hard, but it is the mature way to handle this.

Stop thinking you need to be tied to one person.  You are young so experience life and when you are ready to settle down with the one person who really trips your trigger...you'll know.
