The answer

You did well to cut ties with the woman, and I praise Allah for your repentance and regret. Your addressing her with flirtatious words is a reprehensible act, and it becomes even more sinful given that she is married. What is incumbent upon you is sincere repentance. It appears that you are not obligated towards her husband except to supplicate for him and seek forgiveness for him.
