I (25F) recently met someone (30M) through work and we had great chemistry. After he started acting flirty I looked him up and apparently he has a long term gf. So I stopped the flirting and started treating him like every other acquaintance. He doesn’t know that I know about his gf and now he is mad at me for suddenly not reciprocating his advances, while going out with other men. He is also really good at hiding his relationship on the internet so he probably thinks there is no way I could have found out. I really liked him so and if he was trying to lead me on I don’t think I owe him an explanation, but I do feel a bit guilty for hurting his ego because maybe it was just an innocent crush. What do you think I should do?

Nothing. It’s what you said — just hurting his ego. You don’t have to do anything. He’ll eventually leave you alone if you just keep ignoring his advances.
I don’t think you need to do anything
You’re already doing it. Live your life.
