I’m thinking you two had different definitions of “taking a break”

He definitely was cheating. You are better off.

In practical terms "taking a break from a relationship" means being free to find a "better" or more exciting one. But if they don't find better, then they might come back... OP, a break usually means the relationship is over and it's time to move on. I am sorry, sometimes life is a bitch.
