Idk how old this thread is but it strikes me as a manipulative person to say things like
Quote:
but now and then we get chatting and he tells me how much he will always love me and that we will always have a special connection, that he unfortunately he will never be able to give his heart 100% to his fiancé because of me. Obviously this is nice for me to hear but I guess it's only words.

Umm no. Just no. Move on and grip the reality of the fact that he's moved on. I can see no other motivation for him to say those things other than manipulating you for his own reasons - likely the reasons stated by others, his ego. He likes that you're hanging on it boosts his egotistical nature to know that he's dumped someone and has her on a leash still. I personally don't understand it but have seen this far too many times both from women and men that do this to others. It's a disgusting way to behave if you ask me.
How much truth do you believe that someone is being held back from loving their current partner that they've clearly chosen by their past flame that they left? Look at the big picture, if you love someone so much that you can't love another person as much, would you be with the new person or remain with the one that clearly has your heart? Honestly it's a flat out lie and manipulating words to keep you wrapped around his finger and hanging on.
If he couldn't love another person as much he would have not CHOSEN HER and asked her to marry him. Period.
Don't even take any of his lies to heart. Let it go, accept reality that he's gone and find your own way without anyone. That is truly the best thing for you at the moment.
