thank you for writing it so now i don't have to. I see that he is not referring to a sort of a one time thing when he speaks in EoJ but about the constant lies and the betrayal that a relationship outside of a marriage implies. Like you said on New Carprica he feels that he left (he is clear that he intends to "speak to") Dee and that he moved on. it is the first think that he says. but yes, it's a matter of personal opinion/boundaries/views if you consider that cheating or not (and killing for that matter). for me it is cheating but on another level than like i was saying the constant lie. i mean, i could forgive that (mainly because at the end of the day it is not faithful but it is honest), but not what Kara suggested in EoJ.
the flashback is harder but being laid on us out of the context we can not say. maybe at that point he was not yet the man that we know (and she was not he woman that we know) or maybe he would have did something to make amends. and we do know that the guilt is there.
