"Truth be told, in hindsight, I was only in it to satisfy a sexual need."
So the affair was just a physical thing.
" I was depressed and confused, I was losing a friend and confident ("confidant") as well as a lover"
So it wasn't just a physical thing then, but an emotional relationship as well?
" But then something clicked, it was the sex I needed not the man."
So it WAS just a physical thing? I'm confused now.
You have a bunch of commas where you should have periods: "As the days went by, I became distracted(period). Every man on the street presented a sexual opportunity..."
I suggest you check out punctuation.
