For 2-3 years the same girl has been appearing in my dreams!

Hi I've been really stressed by some dreams I've been having for the past 2/3 years. I'll try my best to keep the background brief but I feel it's important to understand the context. I'm 21 year old guy and all through school I chased this girl,(to protect her identity I'll just refer to her as 'E') for a couple of years she was my first girlfriend and we split up. I spent the rest of my school days trying to get her back to no success. Thankfully we went to the same college to study A-levels, we started 'seeing' each other again but never became official. Long story short she ditched me for her ex and this was the worst heartache I had ever felt because I thought I was finally getting her back but she was just using me for affection and attention. I wouldn't say I was depressed but it was certainly a low point in my life. Ever since then she has been appearing in my dreams, but the worrying thing is I am now in a much better, happier relationship with an incredible girl, ('A') can't believe my luck. Yet the dreams persist. Many things happen when I dream about E, she sometimes explains what happened between us, or we make it official and live happily ever after and sometimes I'm back in school and I actually manage to win her over. Last night I dreamed we were in each other's arms but that's all I can remember. It changes each time but one thing is always the same and this is what's troubling me, while I am with E in my dreams I couldn't care less about A, sometimes I'm even vaguely aware that i am dreaming and don't want to wake up because I want to spend time with E.
This conflicts with my waking life because when awake I never think about E, and A is the only girl for me. These dreams occur at least every other night and I feel extremely guilty.
I really need help interpreting these dreams, they've been stressing me for years and I need to know what my subconscious is trying to say. Apologies for the lengthy post but thank you so much if you have taken time out of your day/evening to read my problem.
