He says he can't be my friend

I have been with this guy for 3 1/2 years. We have a 17 month old together. The relationship is great, but he is married and it has been causing a problem for us. When we first got together he told me that he would be leaving her. I believed it and stayed with him all this time. Well recently I told him that I can't deal with it anymore and that it was over between him and I. I don't only love him, I am in love with him. I just refuse to keep living like that with him. When i told him it was over he told me that it would be hard for him to be my friend. Well he seems to come around me a lot just so he can see me. Today he told me that he couldn't go to work for 2 days because it made him sick that we weren't together anymore. I thing that he is trying to get sympathy points from me hoping that I will take him back. I need help on what to do. I didn't want to break up with him. Should I let him in my life like he was? Or just make him suffer trying to be my friend?

You shouldn't be trying to be friends with him...not possible.
