Why did Oliver get married? Wasn't he still in love with Elio?

But his love/lust/obsession for Elio. didn't make him wants to be with Elio forever. IMO, Elio is one part of his life's episode that he, until 20 years later wouldn't let go. The ending itself has an open possibility of them to comeback together as they were before. But Oliver have a wife and children now, he's like trapped in a life he didn't really want but he has to stay, you know?
I hated that Elio never moved on from Oliver, he's still single and lonely. That made me mad to Oliver all over again. Giving him hope and then he's just let go? But this is a first love tastes like. What I told myself was, to understand that Elio is still young, perhaps, just perhaps, Oliver didn't really sure if Elio would be still loving him. He's just forgot that Elio might be young, but he's an old soul, he's too mature for his own age. Oliver forgot :'((less)
