both at fault

My boyfriend was away on course for 2 months in a different city. He was drinking a lot, very stressed and met an old female friend who he knew for 6 years on the course. I found out he had an emotional affair with her while on the course by reading an email. (he left his msn on)

I told him I read the email and asked if he was planning to continue talking to her. He told me he can never trust me again cause I read his email.

He has been away for 3 weeks now and I sent him an email saying I’m sorry for reading the email and I would like to try to talk and see if we can fix this. We have been together for 2.5 years. He has not replied to the email.

Do I wait to see if he comes to see me or do I just move on as much as that is going to hurt.
