Every small good gesture he made was blown out of proportion in my eyes coz I was in love. But relationships like that are made to crash and burn. The girlfriend eventually found out and he stopped seeing me. My best friend.
It took a long time to move on but I did. I realized that I'm a decent guy, not ugly or stupid and that I deserved somebody who'd love me the way I'd love them. From that point on I swore never to fall for a straight guy again. I mean sure, the thought of flirting with a straight guy is hot, coz you know.. what you can't have is always tempting. But there are lots of gay guys out there that are just as attractive, just as manly and completely comfortable with who they are they don't even have to pretend. Only difference is that they just happen to like guys too. And they can certainly love you back. Well, that last part depends on a lot of things but you get my point.
I've had three relationships with such guys now. First one lasted for three years and took a f#ckin long time to get over. Second lasted for 6 years and the third well, a year coz I refused to date a hot but dumb guy any longer than that. Lol.. point is, I've never looked back. You can't make someone love you, even more so if it's not in their nature to get attracted to your gender. I even dated a bisexual guy for 3 months but broke it off coz he wasn't comfortable with who he was. He was perfect, good looking, very intelligent, and shares my secular beliefs. Only problem was he was not out. And I mean bisexual out. The whole time we were together I felt like I was back in the closet again. So I quit.
Realizing that you don't have to put up with someone's bullshit and find someone you actually deserve is something you have to go through on your own. Everything I'm saying here is meaningless until you realize that for yourself. All I can really say is good luck and I hope you find your way.
