idk what commenters are on about. people ARE messed up, it's written as a messed up thing. divorce isn't something people go for willingly and easily. if you can fix the relationship, you fix the relationship.
we don't know much about his married life but the character says it's going well now, it's been fixed, so why are you being so pessimistic?
it was pretty clear he wasn't taking chef-dudes feelings seriously "he voluntarily became a homewrecker" did we read the same thing? he was hardly conscious and drunk, by definition he could not consent. he liked him so yes, he didn't push him away, but if sober he wouldn't have. yes it continued after, but it's shown time and time again that he had no power in that relationship, he did not want to be doing it. just he had no control.
when he saw him again he said "it's not such a bad memory anymore" (paraphrasing) at the time, and after, he found it awful. the point of that interaction at the bar was for him, and in turn the readers, to realise that it's not such a big part of his life anymore, he doesn't have to beat himself up over it, and haru was the one that meant he could do that.
I DO have gripes with this story but because of commenters' histrionics, I don't care and I'm not going to write them. 3.5 stars.
(I'm also being dramatic here, my annoyance at comments was exaggerated in the hopes of humour being sprinkled into this so it's not a rant. might have made it seem more like a rant.... I don't really mind all that much sorry if I seemed upset (〜￣△￣)〜
