I was trying to avoid breaking up with around the holidays because he is very sensitive.

Do whatever it takes to get the courage to tell him, and the sooner the better. Do it before he goes out and buys a ring. He deserves better than you're treating him. He is an innocent person in this scenario. Tell him today. Yes, he will be hurt, but not as bad as he will be if he buys a ring, then you tell him.

You need to be perfectly honest with your current boyfriend. Don't hurt him, he doesn't deserve that. Make sure you tell him not to propose to you on Christmas day.....that if he does, you'll tell him no....so tell him this ahead of time to save him some embarrassment. Whatever you do, consider your past relationship and the reason why you two broke up.....before you reconsider him as a boyfriend. Think about everything, don't act on impulse. Best of luck to you.

Don't be a miserable indecisive idiot! You already realized your mistake and would even take it back if you could. Well guess what: you can and you should! Especially If you have more feelings for your ex and less for your current. So stop pondering do the right thing

I read thst you distance yourself for a about two weeks to let him get a little bit of idea of what might happen. Then you need to be honest with him and tell him you appeciate his friendship but thats all it can be.

you weren't ready for a new boyfriend, just dump him and go back to your old boyfriend
