Could you move past emotional cheating

Boyfriend of 6.5 years, added random and one known girl on social media, initiated conversations, each of which lasted about a day before being deleted. The messages are nothing explicit or anything like that or even sexual or initiate meeting up but I don’t really get the point then and I am extremely annoyed they were deleted and hidden. The girls are also not his type, I don’t even think he realised what they looked like when adding them (Snapchat). He is pulling the sorry card and will do anything to gain back my trust (typical). Anyone been in similar situation or think it is something can be moved past?

No. Seems he’s trying his luck tbh

My friends partner had an emotional affair for a few weeks. A few months later he started a full on physical affair with someone else, he had also told her the first time round he would never do anything like that again

its just a weird thing for your partner to do and is probably something he’s done before or will do it again. Very disrespectful and very odd behaviour

I don't follow... how do you know that each conversation was deleted after a day?

Doesn't sound very emotional as limited in connection after just a day. Sounds more like he's casting his net out to see who will bite. A fair question would be "does he want you or not?".
I'm guessing with his attitude, he probably ended up getting told to FO by these girls. No woman worth her salt would respond to a random man out of the blue.
I wouldn't say he's cheated yet, but looking to.

The conversations were on Snapchat, on Snapchat you can download your data which shows how many times a person has been added, timestamps of when they have been deleted, and a copy of every photo and text sent which I made sure I found out
