But i found some one new. Someone that its not akward with cuz he isn't my bestfriend. But my bestfriend, doesn't wana get over me. Its gotten to he point where he cut himself. I wana let him know that things between us are just way to akward. I just dont know how. I also need to tell him that me and that someone are in a relashionship..

Tell him that it isn't his fault, that he's a good person, and that you want to help him. Comfort him and be there as much as you comfortably can, because not taking care of yourself to take care of him wouldn't be helping anything. Get him to a professional psychologist and explain that he isn't a bad persons, he just needs a little extra boost.
Dealing with self-harm yourself is never a good idea. It's risky, emotional, stressful and dangerous. There are counselors for a reason, and that reason is to be the help that people need. They are trained to handle these situations; you aren't. A counselor can help boost his self-esteem, help him get over the relationship you two once shared, and help him to not hurt himself. They will get him back on his feet.
It is important that during this process you do what the doctor tells you to as far as how much contact you have with the person. Everyone heals differently.
