I'm sorry, that sounds really difficult. Sounds like he was using you?

Better to have loved and lost...

And it really is. That feeling is real even if it didn't come to anything. After all, the very luckiest people have one romantic relationship that works. All the others end.

Eventually you'll remember the good and forget this feeling.

Sounds like you're struggling and that's natural. It's ok to grieve a relationship and the hopes you had tied to it.

On the bright side you are now no longer stuck in what was probably a hopeless and unequal arrangement and you are free to meet someone who will be on the same page. Plus you now have the wisdom to avoid FWB and other shallow situationships in the future.

Allow yourself to grieve for a few days and then dust yourself off and raise your standards.

It will get easier, you will find someone else. I always find when I feel at my lowest relationship wise, the universe throws something new my way.
Get back out there, you will recover.
