About 10 days ago, my (21f) boyfriend (22m) of 5 months went to a party with some friends. He also invited a girl he knew through friends to the party, as she was new in the city and he wanted to introduce her to some people to help her get into a network, as there were a lot of people at the party studying the same thing as her. He only saw her in a friendly way from what he tells me but apparently that message didn’t get through to her. He told her he had a girlfriend and that we sometimes argued and she stayed respectful of that throughout the evening. After the party she asked him if he could make sure she got home safe because it was around 2/3-ish and she didn’t feel safe in the city. Not thinking anything, he called her an Uber and after she asked him if he still wanted to hang out and talk a bit, he didn’t think anything of it either (he was already drunk out of his mind and from what he tells me nearly black out drunk). So they went to her place and talked for a bit about innocent stuff, he laid down on her couch to sleep and from what he said she tried to kiss him a few times. He told her he had a girlfriend but was so drunk that when she kept trying, he kissed her back for a brief second. They did some other stuff (not sex) too for around 5 minutes before he realized how wrong it was and went to the bathroom to lie down there and lock himself in. He also told me everything the next day and apologized numerous times, said he understands if I do not want this anymore. I thought about it and I’m not sure whether to give him another chance or to move on. To be fair, I had broken up with him just 5 days prior and then gotten back together right away and have been arguing with him a lot. I’m not sure what to do in this situation, any help is appreciated!
TL;DR: My boyfriend kissed another girl at a party and I don’t know how to handle the situation
