I've also been cheated on before and what sucked was that I found out by my own means while casually ordering pizza online (I was using a laptop and the mouse spazzed over his FB messenger, oops). I was so pissed over the fact that my partner at the time didn't tell me sooner because he couldn't find the words or the 'right time' to tell me. When I confronted him about it, I considered breaking up with him and spent some time alone to clear my head but I ended up giving him a second chance because he proved through his actions that he knew he made a mistake and wanted to do better. One thing I brought up to him was that if he had been honest with me at the start, and had been the one to tell me, I would've thought about it differently. Because I found out by myself, I grew more anxious about of a lot things I used to trust him with.
For your situation, even if you didn't physically commit to the act of cheating, in my opinion you should talk about it with your s/o. Your s/o will feel hurt and may act out but its something your partner deserves to know. If you both love each other enough, you can work it out and grow from it together. It may be hard but nothing is ever easy :P.
