I think it’s important to understand that you can’t control another person, and they’re response to you (or lack of) is not your fault. Considering the situation, this man obviously has some unresolved personal issues that he needs to come to terms with before he can make progress in any relationship (including his own). Perhaps, he is quite simply not interested in pursuing something else again. I think the best thing you can do for yourself is take the experience for what it was, and move forward. Every human deserves to be happy and feel secure in their relationships, not questioning them. Love yourself and try to participate in mutual encounters (whether sexual, love, friendship, etc.) - ones that make you feel good. Of course we all experience unreciprocated emotions at times, the thing is, you need to understand this is not a reflection of your worth.

I don't think this is a good situation at all. You deserve better than to be the secret! His girlfriend may have caught him or he's trying not to get caught.

Maybe his girlfriend does not like you and he did it for her. You could have been just a one time thing to...

Hi there. He might be ignoring you because he feels a sense of guilt for going against the commitment that he made to his girlfriend, and because he wants to pursue a long term relationship with her. It is difficult to endure, especially if you have feelings towards him, but try and understand both sides of view. Perhaps try and find someone else who can fully commit to you and fulfil your needs, so that maybe you could just remain friends with this 'fling'. Hope it helps :)

There are a multitude of reasons why this may be, he may feel guilty, or just want distance to try to get his thoughts in order before continuing with any further practices. It all depends on the person!

He probably is ignoring you because he was not serious at the first play when cheating with you. He wanted to have fun probably and that is the worst situation ever to realize he only wants your body.

Most people cheat with the goal of obtaining pleasure. Once they have had that, you may no longer be of use to them, meaning they could surely ignore you.

Because he realizes what has has done and doesn't want to hurt anyone anymore. He's closing himself off so no one gets hurt.

He has either decided to go back to her or he was just toying with you. Either way, it's time for you to move on.

He is most likely ignoring you because he is feeling guilt and you are a reminder of something he did to upset his relationship, so by ignoring you, he ignores the problem. In my opinion, I would remove myself from the situation by not attempting to engage with him, or even expect anything from him such as an explanation or an apology, as you will most likely be met with disappointment. Often a situation like this can make one feel devalued and undermined however this is not a reflection of your worth, but rather a poor response to his guilt
