To feel guilty?

So me and my husband broke up 2 months ago and its been rough.
I started chatting to an old friend who I always fancied but never made a move. We've ended up sexting a little and flirting lots!! Honestly I haven't felt sexy in months (especially with a baby) so was really surprised about how much I've been fantasizing about him.
But I've found myself waking up today feeling really guilty about it. I know if I knew my ex was doing it I'd feel shiity. I get that's totally a double standard.... am I being unreasonable feeling guilty? X

YABU OP. There is no reason to feel guilty if you are sure that your marriage is dead in the water. You've been apart for 2 months and you're only human. It may be a boost to your self esteem, but at the moment its completely risk / hassle free fun.
You don't know 100% that your exH hasn't been doing the same, so don't dwell on it.
I don't think you have any reason to feel guilty at all. Enjoy it

No, you shouldn't be waiting. You just follow what your instinct tell you. Seriously, you have no need to feel guilty about your own pleasure. He ended it and i assume he feels no guilt over that or his feelings, so sext away to your guilt free hearts content.
