Alexandria,

Your post says that your boyfriend and you were broken up when this happened.  My understanding of what “broken up” means is that the two of you are not together which means to me that there is no relationship which means there can be no cheating.

Am I missing something?

Plus he was not conscious while getting felicitated and had legitimate feelings of guilt.  You can hold him to your standards of honesty but in my view, this was a non-incident during a time when you two were not in a relationship.

I evaluate people based on their character, values and their track record of behavior.  It sounds like this man is a decent person who tries to do the right thing.  If you want to judge and distrust him based on this one non-incident then that’s your prerogative but in my opinion, you need to let that go and move on.
