Should I feel so bad for telling my girlfriend of 6 years I need a break from dating because am not over a ex girlfriend?

So pretty much me and my current kai break up for 3 months over a very big fight we had like a 20 out of 10 . During our break
Up I become friends with a girl that I ended up dating. Everything with the new girl Skyler felt super easy till my ex girlfriend started to express she still loved me. I had a lot of left of feelings for my ex Kai so my new girlfriend Skyler was perfectly fine with trying a open relationship which was the worse mistake of my life.

My relationship with Skyler ended since she couldn’t handle the open relationship and she was dealing with a lot of personal trauma she had to fix with a therapist involving rape by friends.
It has been a few months since I even talked to my ex girlfriend Skyler and I think about her a lot and regrets so much killing that relationship for my current one … I feel like Skyler was the one I used to feel that way for my Kai but not anymore.
I just told my current girlfriend I feel I may need a break from dating, Kai isn’t a bad girl she has my break with everything but what she did to me a few months ago killed my strong romantic feelings for her. I feel like okay maybe if I work very very hard I can grow to have strong feels with Kai agin and a decent relationship but I feel like am setting for her because I can’t be with my ex girlfriend Skyler.

Skyler left off to college and when I say she has a lot of mental health issues because of men&her family that would be a understatement. I was the only guy Skyler was okay being around alone without freaking out. I know Skyler agin deep down and if she comes back it will be on her on so i refuse to text her or call her.
