I agree that you've got it backwards. H is not good enough for you.

No worries my friend - I am not going "there", I just need to think...
My Dad said something last night to me after I had calmed down enough to actually utter a coherent word and explain to him why I was so upset - He thinks H only said that because S put him on the spot and H really has no intention of following thru.
After all you know, do you believe this to be true? Should I not be so worried?
Just thinking about the H he has become "taking" care of our S is enough to make my skin crawl and I never thought I would utter those words about the man I married.

It's certainly a plausible possibility. But it could also be as someone said above, tho -- more of a "14 year old being 14" than about "betrayal."
My S13, who I coach in baseball, and I fight like cats and dogs on the ballfield, and I take everything WAY too personally. OFF the field, we get along GREAT -- best buds. My wife always tells me, wisely, "Pup, he's only 13. Stop expecting him to think like a grown-up."
