is this cheating?

I have been in a relationship for a while and I love my amazing boyfriend, however I have wanted to ask my ex to delete my revealing photos which I had sent to him because I am not comfortable with him having them. I have absolutely no interest at all in the ex no matter what he says or does, I stopped texting him after having a short convo bout why I want them gone. my bf doesn't know I texted him however is this bad? because it will cause my bf to worry if i tell him, however I absolutely felt uncomfortable so I had to text my ex to ask him to get rid of them.
That's definitely not cheating. But you could tell him about it if it's something you think would want to know about.

Not cheating. Mind you, probably makes him more likely to keep them
Not cheating.
But it was very unwise to send nude photos of yourself in the first place and even more unwise to message an ex asking him to delete the images.

Best to speak to a specialist lawyer.
Get some advice in relation to your options if the ex refuses to delete the nudes or tries to play any games with you about them.
Good luck!

No, it's definitely not cheating.
Not smart to send nudes though.
You might want to mention that since 2015 in England and Wales, it has been an offence for someone to share a private sexual image or video (online or offline) of someone without their consent and with the intention of causing them distress. Under Section 33 of the Criminal Justice and Court Act 2015, this offence is punishable by up to two years in prison. Say that on that basis, for the avoidance of doubt and as you are no longer in a relationship, you would like him to legally declare and confirm that he has permanently and irretrievably deleted the images.
