We broke up. Then I slept with someone else. I feel like I've cheated. But at the same time, I didn't? He and I both feel like I cheated. I don't know to fix it.
So you and the guy both believe he still has some sort of ownership claim on you after you've broken up. What's the time limit on that? A week? A month? A year? The rest of your life?
He sounds like an asshole, and you sound like someone who enjoys feeling bad about yourself. Tell him to piss off again, and try to find a guy who can let you feel better about yourself.
If ya'll were technically broken up then it's not cheating. Of you feel like it was cheating, because you slept with the other so quickly after the break up. The problem here is that you slept with the person way too soon.
Rebound sex is common after a breakup, and you shouldn't feel guilty for it. If he thinks he still has any claim to being anything to do with you after you broke up, then he is an arse and you're better off without him.
You could always scold him, saying: "Do you realize how many guys I had to sleep with, just to get over you?"
Don't "fix" it. Nothing TO fix... If you 2 were 'broken up', it's over / move on. And that's what you did.
Whether it's 5 seconds, or 5 years, there is no "line" that you crossed, in my book.
He feels bad, because you didn't "lament" over the break-up, long enough.
You feel bad, because you moved on, so quickly.
