Playing a fool?

I've fallen in love with a man in a sticky situation. His marriage has been long out the door. A few months ago he confided in me that his wife is already dating thus he's free until they can afford a divorce. Soon we discover that we have feelings for each other and soon enough "I love you" comes along. Things were hot for awhile, but have cooled recently since he's taken on a new job. To the point where he doesn't answer text messages. He rarely calls where before he would at least try. I've tried to show my interest in him by being encouraging with his new job. Helping him with a bill so he can be available for his kids. I'm starting to wonder if I was just an escape. Am I wrong for wanting attention from him? I'm trying to be understanding that he does have other responsibilities than me, but it still doesn't feel fair. //And no, we haven't had sex.
