I'm the PP who said no and it was about missing the feelings. What's bolded is exactly what happened with me. I made my AP into everything I wanted/needed at that time. The things he said, he did, I manipulated them into what I wanted. Therefore, of course we had an amazing connection...of course he was my soulmate...because he was a fantasy transferred onto a real person. My H couldn't compete with what I'd built up in my head.
Agree that he also filled in all the missing pieces left from my H. Pure fantasy created to fill the emotional void. I felt desired and appreciated for more than looks. I'm sure it was all BS but I couldn't see it at the time.

+1. I feel all of this as well. Except the anger at myself is not anger for doing it. I am angry with myself for not being brave enough to leave the situation I am in.
