So true. But what is so sad, for me, is that I had such a rare utopia but lost it. So then, on that premise, my question is: now what?

For one thing, it's built on facilitating affairs between married people, which wouldn't bother me as much if not for the fact that this seems to be the exact opposite situation the OP is in. For another, literally everything I've heard about AM suggests there's an absurdly high male-to-female ratio of the user base. Even without the morally eyebrow-raising gimmick, this cannot bode well for your chances.
I don't see how anything went over his head. It's simply true that AM couldn't apply to my situation any less.
