Alright. Don't tell him that you love him, do something much much easier. Engage him in conversation. Say hello, talk about school, re-acquaint yourself with him. I think it is quite easy, just work your way up to it.

I'm not really sure what your point was in forcing him to tell his g/f about your hook up. Guilt? A forced confession by one guilty party doesn't erase what happened, nor does it change the situation (that you have feelings for eachother), it only complicates things, as you now see.
I think the issue is your boyfriend's. He has to make a choice here, b'twn you and his 'official' g/f. And you have to be willing to accept his decision, as well as his g/f's mistrust of you.
Different people have different standards of what's OK in a relationship, and for a lot of people, that includes havng friends of either gender eventhough they might be 'taken'. However, when you feel romantically about someone and have crossed that line by 'hooking up', it';s hard to go back, esp. when the g/f knows of your transgression.
Encourage him to make a choice here, as difficult as that might be for you.

The point with making him tell his gf was that i felt really bad and i couldnt see her everyday and keep lieing to her.
He already made his choice n her chose her. But now he just wants to be friends but i dont see how thats gonna work out..beacause with yesterday you could feel the connection between us..

Right, guilt. I think if he's chosen her, then you need to respect that choice by having good boundaries here. Keep your feelings to your self, and behave as if he's taken. With time, maybe that will change, but for now, take some emotional distance, and if you cannot, stay away.
