Dear Geean:

Sometimes things are simpler than what we imagine them to be. Reads to me that you felt good having been able to talk to him, “tell him everything” and him listening to you and encouraging you. That felt very good and you miss it. This good feeling in itself is enough for a lot of women to want a romantic relationship with such a man, to keep talking to him more often, after work, spend time together, be physically close to etc.

He is married and it hurts that you can’t have more of that good feeling.

Is my input helpful at all in regard to your troubling dilemma, “it is love or just attachment”?
