You might be...

You might be just his sexual outlet. He probably knew you held special feelings for him so you would receive him if he was convincing enough. Most of the time Muslim men would never leave their Muslim born wives since, as you say, they marry to uphold family and traditional values. They might marry another Muslim woman though if their marriage contract allows. I have realized women that convert aren't usually considered good enough and they want their children raised by women that were raised in their countries because they will be more submissive maybe and know the culture of how to act.

Usually they use Western women for money, greencard or sex because they have it in their mind that most western women are easy when technically we are all just women. Although, I have a lot of Muslim male friends in Egypt and Morroco and they don't seem to have problems getting sex from women born there. Crazy it's like racial discrimination. Obviously they have their easy women too:) I am sure your Morrocan friend has some feelings for you but until he divorces, you should try to be careful by protect your emotional wellbeing and not continue an affair with him. I swear I don't judge you. I am just saying it's the safest thing to do.
