Husband cheated - does this meet the definition?

Husband chatting to female colleague on FB tonight. He angled phone away from me so I couldn’t see - never done that before. He appeared guilty. He realised I was curious and told me a rumour is going around about him having sex with a colleague at work. He categorically denies this, tells me he is worried as she is somewhat vulnerable and he doesn’t want colleagues thinking this about him.

I know I shouldn’t have done this, but I wanted to know the details so read his phone when he was in bed. He has denied the above incident to his colleagues, but it turns out that he asked another female colleague on a date in May and has kissed another one at some other point.

I have found the message where he asked colleague out. He has been messaging her recently, day before our anniversary in fact. All innocent as she turned him down, but he continued to message her. She no longer works with him and hasn’t for a while.

For clarity I have a low sex drive, he has a high one. This has been a cause of many arguments over the years.

I’m not sure what I believe, I only know he has been having a great time flirting (at the very least) with a number of women.

I don’t even know what I want from this thread - my head is all over the place.

There's so many of these type of threads on MN but for some reason, yours really angers me. Maybe it's because you still term his actions as innocent when they're nothing of the sort.
How dare he kiss another woman and then invite her into your home as though nothing happened. And asking someone out, pursuing her actually, is just as bad as a full blown affair. It didn't happen accidentally. He actively pursued it and would have gone through with it had she not refused.

The disrespect to you angers me. I want to smack him.
