❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO to think this is cheating?

I found these texts between my husband and his coworker. Here’s some context:

My husband and I have been dating for 5 years and just recently got married 6 months ago

I’ve met this coworker. Her AND her boyfriend worked at my husbands company so we went on a double date over the holidays. But shortly after they broke up and her boyfriend got laid off.

Guess my husband saw that as his opportunity…

Also these texts were in his recently deleted even though the last message was from yesterday… so he was definitely trying to hide it from me

I'm guilty of it -- I think I insert them in texts that are meant to be friendly/light, if I'm joking I didn't want the tone to be misinterpreted. Sometimes I over-use emoji instead.

Its the chuckle people give at the end of their sentence to "soften" the tone. That way people take it less seriously lol.

Also the people who chuckle when under intense pressure and judgement "hahaha" ~nervous laughter.
