Hey everyone,

So I have a question which I do not want to ask anyone I know. I had a relationship with a guy for almost 5 years and I was the one to break up although he didn't agree. After some time I have realised that it was a mistake, I was missing him too much. Nevertheless he didn't take me back and he said that he turned the page. It hurt me as hell and I kept trying to forget him, forced myself to move on. When I felt that I was ready to be in a new relationship, I met a really cute guy and we started dating. Meanwhile my ex started texting all of a sudden, my bf did not like it so he told him to back off that's why I remained quite, couldn't get the chance to confront. There were plenty of things that I wanted to tell him, so that I wrote him a long mail. I basically said whatever comes uppermost, the facts &my frustrations etc. I also thanked him and that all same old wish you well stuff. I wanted to tell him myself that he should not contact me again. I felt so good after getting things out of my system. I made sure that he cant reply back. Now knowing that my bf would be so upset (he would make it a big issue since he hates my ex) if he knew that I did such a thing, I feel guilty but at the same time I feel like I had to let go.

So is it considered cheating?  I dont want to tell him. If I do, it would only make things more complicated. What do you think?
