Wtf why won’t my heart move on?

I’m dating this new guy since me and my ex broke up but I don’t know how I feel about this new guy. We’ve been going on dates like once a week or every other week for 2 months and I though I would know by now wether or not I liked him or not. I don’t wanna string him along but I think I like him but I’m not sure. I don’t know if it’s because I still love my ex. I can’t see myself having a future with my ex though but I do still love him and think about him all the time. I broke up with him 4 months ago. I’m so confused with what to do and what’s going on with my love life. What do I do?

You just need to be honest with the new guy and tell him you do enjoy his company but you are still trying to move on from your ex so you aren't ready to commit any more of you or your time to the current relationship. At least that way you are letting him know exactly how things stand and also giving him an out if he really does need more from the relationship.

@thatbuggerpaul when I started dating him I told him I was over my ex and had moved on (which I don’t see a future with my ex so I was being honest about that) but emotionally I am still processing it which I don’t think I told him about yet.

@Fifidog I get it but that's all the more reason to be honest about those feelings as it will help him to decide if he wants to move on to someone who can be more commited to him . Also the realisation that you could be losing a nice guy because you haven't really moved on emotionally might just help you move on ,either way you are giving him the full picture so he can decide what he wants to do.
