At this point, I could not possibly be any lower. And I am the type that defines herself by her relationships and current marital status.

That's when he leaned in to kiss me and it was downhill from there. He would jump on top of me, start kissing my neck and I would slightly push him off, saying this was wrong and he needed to stop, he would ignore me and then I would kiss him back

Sounds like he's a cheater, and would've cheated sooner or later, even if it wasn't with you.
But really, sounds like you have a pattern of being attracted to guys like this. I hate to say it, but assholes seem to gravitate to girls with low self esteem and/or who look for relationships to give them that self esteem-- it's like they know who will have the highest tolerance for their bs.
From what you wrote, it sounds what really upset you is that triggered the pain you felt in your own past...
You might want to seriously analyze 1) why you define yourself so much by relationships 2) why you're attracted to the type of guys you are. I know going all "see a therapist!" sounds lame, but they might be able to give you the attention and gentle prodding in the right direction to really get at the root of this. Or, at least talk to a friend or relative...
