Your post reminded me of my similar situation of being older but accepted. Or so i thought. The easy, relaxed acceptance of me and my faults was my downfall. For once I was being loved at face value with no trial by fire, no wondering. Turns out it's very easy to overlook age when the woman can offer a visa or money. Do not be fooled by his acceptance of your age - it's more than likely an act.

You're not weak and stupid - just human. Your age makes you particulalrly vulnerable - it probably feels like a last chance at love. But to continue to contact him would not be too smart.

How to get over him ? Find yourself and enjoy life.
