You deserve so much better, seriously! You can do better than someone like that. If he really does expect something in return, if you do cave and give it to him, you are going to lose all respect for yourself.
I can tell you want something better than this because it's bothering you. There's an old expression "No guy is worth your tears and when you find the right one, he won't make you cry."
Him breaking up with you did you the biggest favor. It might hurt now, but it is feel this way. Honestly, 9 nine years is a long time, but trust me when I say this, this guy will only break your heart.
Find someone who cares about YOUR feelings, and listens to your opinions. I had a friend who was with a guy for 12 years and all he did was cheat on her and have sex with other girls, but she still defended him.
If anyone gives you advice to find someone better, please take it. This guy deserves nothing more than a girl who is going to do the same thing to him!
You'll find someone else. Just give yourself some time to heal, so you're not hanging on to a rebound out of desperation. When my ex broke up with me after 4 years, it only took me 3 months to get over her, but I understand it might be different than you. Take care of yourself and when you are ready, get together with someone who deserves you!

This wasn't meant to be and the hope you had, as sad as it is to say, was never going to change him. I'm sorry you didn't see this sooner but you have to take control of your happiness yourself and not place it solely in the hands of someone else. The writing was on the wall and you ignored it. Again I'm sorry and I know this is a tough time. This is an opportunity to learn from and to start working on your own self worth so next time you can recognize better a good man for you vs a man not worth your time.
Reading this makes me so sad!
Girl, he truly did you a favor - you need better. Now, wipe those tears away and do something fun for yourself.
