What Am I to You?

Posted this on the All Sides Board, but perhaps that is not the best place to do so:
Or “What Was I to You?”
Any former affair participants care to expound on what their significant other (affair partner) meant to them? I've safely tucked her away in a corner of my mind and it is a shame that is where she will have to remain.
Honest thoughts please.

My former affair partner occupies remarkably little of my mind these days. I've accepted that the person I fell in love with was little more than a personna projected by him that I readily bought into for a period of just over 3yrs. In reality, therefore, I fell in love with someone who does not and has never actually existed.
I am forever grateful to him for being what amounts to a sperm donor for my beautiful 21mos old daughter (a child he suggested we have together, raise together as a family and then chose to have no contact with for reasons best known to himself). I am forever grateful that the trauma of my EMA prompted me to seek counselling from which I've grown immensely as a person and managed to make the quantum leap to being a real grown-up. I am forever grateful that I am now able to truly appreciate all that I really do have and am content that exMICR remains very much an Ex.
Interesting question, beleagueredman.

You (my ex-OM) are my most special friend. We share a secret that no one else in my life knows or even suspects. I know you miss me terribly and wish things had gone a different way. I hope your heart opens up again soon and you find a new, wonderful, available woman to share your life. I will do my best to hide my jealousy and wish you well. You will always have a place in my heart.

You are still, clearly, very much a part of me. Someday (soon I hope) you won't be and you will be just a memory.
You still consume alot of my thoughts. Too much of my time is spent wondering how you are. I don't understand why I even care, but I do. Thanks to you I feel like I am worthless now. You showed me how bad one person can hurt another.
You are the man who ripped my heart into a zillion tiny pieces.
