Just wanted to send out there...?

I made a huge mistake and sought advice here. I got some tough love but I deserved it. I had an EA and somehow believed him that he loved me and wanted to be with me, that if I loved him enough he would be mine (we are both married). Today I confronted him - 3 months after it "ended" when he still was telling me he loves me, I am beautiful etc. - and he said he will never be with me. I am sad but also, I am glad I know now and can move on...thanks to those who told me I was wrong, that I deserved more and needed to move forward for my sake, my child, for his wife and my husband.

Update:

EA - emotional affair

    Well Emotional Affairs sometimes involve people trading "I Love You's" even if they don't really mean it.

    Yes they "meant it when they said it" but in the end, of course, they didn't.

    On the other hand, you're better off. If he was using you before, had you left your family without him actually putting his "money where his mouth is" that is making some effort to show you he's got some reality invested in you (as in he really wanted you and made some kind of sacrifice to be with you); its best to know.

    Now you know.

    It doesn't mean people can't love each other. Maybe that guy misses you. But he was building a fantasy for you, and it appears it has evaporated.

    you deserve more? what about his wife deserves more? and your husband?

    who said you deserve anything- your fan club?

    stop focusing on yourself.
