Does talking to someone else while you’re not yet in a relationship count as “cheating”? (Page 2)

Question

Back when we were casually “dating”, I was still talking to my ex (I was very open about this to everyone). My current boyfriend, let’s call him S, so S and I weren’t official bc he still needed time to move on from his ex but we would still see each other despite all that. He even met up with his ex twice.  Bcs of that, I didn’t feel the need to stop chatting with my ex, let’s call him K (as friends, nothing more) who is a really good friend of mine. My now boyfriend (S) knew about all this from the very beginning, I even let him read my chats back then. Fast forward a year later, S and I finally made it official. I already stopped talking with my ex K a few months beforehand bcs I knew things were getting serious with S.  As I was scrolling through my phone, S saw the old chats I had with K. He told me he felt cheated, but the thing is he already knew about this before we were official. I know I’m the wrong and his feelings are valid but is what I did really considered as cheating…? I only chatted with my ex purely as friends, I’m also very open with my current boyfriend about it, he was free to ready and all of my text correspondences with my ex, plus my boyfriend and I weren’t in a relationship back then… So while I know that it was a really shitty thing for me to do, but did it really count as cheating?
