Older man

I dated an older man for 10 months. He was a closeted bisexual who wanted me to help him live out a fantasy, and kept pressuring me to invite another man into our relationship. I declined repeatedly, saying I wasn’t comfortable sharing him with someone else. Eventually, he just stopped responding to my texts and phone calls all of a sudden, and basically ghosted me. I was worried sick, but never got his address (should have been the first red flag) so I couldn’t reach him at all (I also think he blocked my phone number). A few months later, I get an e-mail saying that he had a stroke and was partially paralyzed and that we needed to break up. I was already over it by then. A few weeks later, I happen to see him at a local putt-putt place, looking like nothing had ever happened to him. Oh, and he was there with his wife and kids.
