I have known this man for 25 years. I have always had this place for him in my heart - we always talked over the years.

Often times the person we want someone to be is not actually the person they are. We project our hopes and desires of who we want them to be onto them. Then, when we get to know them better (say in an LTR) we find the flaws they had all along which we never knew about while imagining the fantasy of being with them, or perhaps covered up during the honeymoon phase of the relationship, which typically lasts longer than 3 months.
Your boyfriend cheated 3 months into a 4 year relationship and is now doing it again. He showed you pretty quickly into your actual relationship who he was as a person.
