Geez. It is not CB's job to manage your emotional welfare. She does not owe you an explanation. She simply stopped an inappropriate R which, strangely enough, you are again acting as if was not inappropriate. It was. She knows it. You know it. I know it.
If you have an Affair-like R, and one person ends it, that person made the right move. As I feel certain you know, it such cases it does no good, and probable harm, for the person who leaves an A-like R to try to take care of the person dumped. There is no point in explaining it. The R is over. It didn't work for her. Period. Quit moping around like a victim. Geez. Geez. Geez.
Try putting some of your victim feelings on STBX where they are at least a better fit, and then try getting rid of them altogether. You are a free adult male who chose to live the life you have led. It isn't up to others to make your choices feel good for you.
Yes, I know you've heard this all before from me, I'm just stunned to see you all wrapped up in the CB stuff again. I'm sure you can figure out a way to avoid unwanted interaction, which seems to be the appropriate move.
