I know this is ridiculous

[HelpWendy]

A guy chased me, ended up still be mixed up with his ex. We kept in touch as we got along so I well. He reached out all last week as I think he was having a hard time and I said I couldn't meet him if he had a girlfriend

He has either blocked me or deleted my number today and for some reason I am so gutted. I feel ridiculous, heartbroken I'll never see him again.

I really cared about him but obviously he never really cared for me.

He was never available to have a relationship with you. The lesson here is not to get involved - under the guise of "friendship" - with someone you are attracted to while he is unavailable.

I know it hurts, OP but it will pass. Live and learn.

He's done you a favour in the long run, it's for the best you aren't involved when his ex /current is also on the scene.

He created the illusion of compatibility because he wanted something from you (presumably a shag?). Now that you have set a firm boundary, he has realised you're not worth pursuing.

He was looking for a shag and when he realised that’s not from you he’s probably chasing other women now.

You dodged a bullet - these men follow the same script
