Need advice really badly, will give more details about me, the trans girl or the other girls and my situation if it helps
so, i've loved a girl for a long time, i've asked her out, she rejected me, but i still love her, anyways recently i met a m2f trans, now i was a straight guy, and never been with a guy or a trans before, so this was all new to me, and i asked repeatedly that we take it slow, we've had a couple of dates, slept with eachother ect she's really sweet, but is also clingy and wants a real long term thing, i've been honest and told her i'm not sure, but i cannot get this other girl out of my head, the trans girl is now saying she loves me and stuff, i can't say it back, because, even though it's not mutual, i love someone else, it will probably never happen, hence i started dating other people to get away from my feelings, but i don't want to string this trans girl along, she's sweet and kind and deserves better than that, but me being honest will crush her, and end a pretty good thing, but in my mind is the right thing to do, as it's the only way i can have respect for her and my own feelings, i can't make her second fiddle and i can't just stop loving this other girl, how do i break it too her? what should i say? should i even not tell her and just carry on like nothings wrong? i don't know, i'm in serious trouble here, i will emphasize that it's important to me that i'm honest and treat this girl with respect, i'm fairly ignorant to a lot of things but i do know trans people have a hard time from people, and get sexualized or hated on ect, to me she's a person and a decent one at that, so i have to treat her in that way
TL;DR not sure how or if i should break up with the trans girl i'm dating because my heart isn't in it

No one can stay mad at honesty, but you also can't force love.
If you really are in love with this other girl you probably shouldn't be dating anyone until you are sure you are over her.
You'll save yourself some heartbreaks
