Dating A Married Man: My Painful Experience

I met a married man at my workplace and fell in love with him. He told me at first that his wife and kids were not in Nigeria, but later I found out they actually live here. When I confronted him, he admitted he lied so I could accept him. Despite that, I continued the relationship because I loved him. Along the way, he kept showing me he truly loves his wife, yet he still claimed to love me too. Sometimes he talked to me rudely, especially when he was on the phone with his wife. I always tried to make excuses for him. Last month, I even traveled interstate to visit him at his other house. While I was there, a small incident, the bathroom door making noise during his call with his wife, made him yell at me and treat me badly. I got upset and left. When I returned home, I called and begged him, even putting all the blame on myself. After two days, he finally replied but insulted me, saying I failed woefully because I didn’t sweep his whole house or lay his bed, even though he once told me he had someone to do that. Now I’ve made up my mind to block him and not go back, even though I still love him. It hurts, but I want to choose myself this time. Please, what advice do you have for me?
