Currently married hut separated, dating before starting the process

i wanted to flair this infidelity because legally, it is. and part of me feels guilty. i am 22 f, been married for a little over a year now and have one child. i need to know if anyone else is in the same boat.

i began seeing someone shortly after i told my husband (soon to be ex husband) that i wanted the divorce. my reasoning for wanting a divorce being his mom was too much involved and i felt as if i married her, he is not an attentive father or an attentive husband (goes to work comes home drinks and sleeps), turns every talk about how i am feeling into an argument, insecure, and an addict (kratom in place of hydrocodone and percocet). i had been over my husband for about a year now, havent slept with him or wanted him near me.

now to the story of the hour. i meet this guy through my close friend, and it just so happens he is her brother. started chat via instagram, began hanging out on husbands night shifts. its been a four day ordeal, and i have loved getting to know this man. and to preface, i have been honest and told him i like this guy and want to get to know him better. now he is being extremely petty about things and getting his mom involved.

if there is anyone else going through this or has been through this, can you please help me out. i dont want to stop seeing this new guy, i also dont want my soon to be ex husband causing issues between us. what do i do, how do i go about this, and why am i feeling so much guilt?
