Sleeping wonder lies to me, and the lies are sweet.
When I broke up with my first boyfriend, we were on bad terms for a month. Then one day, I just called him up and asked how he was doing. I'd completely moved on from him, which did hurt him a bit, but he was willing to be the friend I needed him to be. Because he was able to put his feelings for me aside, we were both able to move on to other people without any issues of hurting each other. If your ex-boyfriend/friend isn't able to do that, then you might have to move on completely. If having you around as his friend keeps his feelings for you, but doesn't kindle any in you, then it's hurting him worse than if you move on. Basically, if he really wants to be your friend, then let him. Just... Don't flaunt your moving on in his face. Don't pretend you haven't, make that clear. If he can't accept that, then it's better that you're not friends.
As for this new guy, take a chance! Because if he doesn't like you in the end, at least you know. And hey, then he doesn't deserve you and doesn't know what he's missing out on. In the end, if you have to leave them both behind, that's not the end of the world. More boys will come along if that ends up the case.
I can't tell you what to do. Nobody can. But if you think about it in the cheesy, cliche, and yet totally true way that if they can't accept you they don't deserve you, then it's all about the choice you want to make. Follow what your instincts tell you to do.
Good luck!
