I (F28) ended the benefits with my (M27) FWB and it hurts

Now I am thinking about whenever I wanted to know in what situation we were. I would say something that I hope he contradicts (I once told him to let me know if he is ever interested in someone else, to just tell me, cuz I wouldn't wanna feel that I was replaced. He followed by saying that he is not currently looking for anything serious, he has been meeting people but nothing that big and that we are "not exclusive and just really good friends", but that just only confirmed to me that he truly would not be interested.

I don't know tbh, I think I am right about many things but maybe deep down hoping for something different. But that is not fair to him. I might just as well let him do whatever he wants. Also, I am very aware of my anxious attachment style and that I was constantly the one initiating texting. By time, he surely learnt that he doesn't need to do much. So, it only made things seem that they were coming from my side.
