The whole "we were on a break" situation can get very complicated. If you both talked about the break and agreed that you were going to spend time apart but would still be a couple during that time, that means he cheated. He definitely cheated on you if you both agreed not to be romantic with other people before you took a break from one another. In my opinion cheating is not something that can be forgiven because it shows that the other person doesn't care if they betray or hurt you. On the other hand, if you didn't clearly talk about what taking a break meant, he might think you meant that you wanted to break up and wouldn't be a couple anymore. If that is the case he wouldn't have intended to cheat on you because he wouldn't have known you still thought of him as your boyfriend. He would have figured it would be okay to move on with someone else because he thought you broke up with him. Ultimately it depends on what he thought the break meant and if you were clear with him about it. It is up to you in the end if you want to continue the relationship. Although if you decide to continue dating him I would suggest couples therapy.

No such thing as "breaks" to me. I automatically assume break means it's over. You shouldn't need a "break" from a relationship in my opinion either. That says to me something is very wrong. So unless that's "fixed" and discussed 100%, you shouldn't be back together.

I think it's going to be hard to restore enough trust to make things work, especially if he doesn't affress your concerns. It would be best to move on.
