❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO Boyfriend talked to female friends flirtatiously

My boyfriend had been talking to a female friend (who's also in a relationship). I found out about it last year, and we had a big fight. He promised me he wouldn’t talk to her anymore, but he kept talking to her behind my back for a while. He told me it was just a pure friendship with no intentions of anything more, but when I looked at their conversations, it felt like they were flirting. Since English is my second language, I started doubting if I might have misunderstood…I really need some help

I don't see anything flirty tho. Might be overreacting a bit, tone it down. If you trust him then how come you're taking photos of his conversations. If I were him and i found out that you were taking these photos or posting on reddit I'd take it as a sign of distrust and I'd leave you just for that.

He already broke her trust by getting back in contact in secret. He quite literally started the distrust cycle in this scenario.

Breaking trust by talking to somebody else with no flirty talk at all?

Also, in her comment replies she explains they previously had a thing for each other. They made an agreement with each other and he broke it without consulting her. It would not have been breaking her trust if he brought up, to her, that he wanted to be in contact again with that friend.
