This is a relationship of convenience for him. He's not taking it as seriously as you. If a man I was in love with said: "he does not ever want to marry me as he does not want a divorce from his wife—he says he wants to be a free bird and will meet me when he takes care of all his many problems" that would be a deal breaker for me. That sentence alone tells me you are wasting your time with him. Have you seen Sex in the City? He's just not that in to you.
The secret to being alone is filling your life up with things you love doing. If you love sport join a social sport club. If you love cooking join a class if you love books join a book club. Fill your life up with stuff that makes you happy and then you don't need a man to fulfill you.
Good luck doll let us know how you are getting on.
