'Friend' texted inappropriately, hubby read it, now 'friend' won't speak to me!

Ok, this will be long to get all the points in, but I need advice please. I became back in contact with a guy that used to live in a flat above my then boyfriend (now my hubby) and myself, so we both were friendly with him. My son got work experience and it turned out this guy was the owner of the company. I obviously swapped phone nos. with him as my son (15) was with him all day (only himself and occasionally his wife work there). This guy has been married for 10 years and has 2 young girls, I have been married for 23 years and have two older boys. We used to chat when I collected my son, and then after he finished working there the guy texted me that he hoped he would see me again sometime, and that my son could go and work there again in the next school holiday. To cut it short, we texted each other a bit, and I sort of thought his texts were a bit flirty, but as I don't consider myself good looking at all, I brushed it off, thinking he was just maybe one of those guys that flirts with everyone. We got into regular texting, which I now know was stupid, but I honestly never had any intentions of anything else developing, and I did not hide it from hubby. This guy put in one text that "you know what I think of you, you just can't remember" (it had been 20 years since we moved from each other). When I questioned this he said that he had kissed me back then (I don't remember at all!), and we sort of argued and I asked him if he wanted something to happen between us, and he said no, I just got the wrong idea and leave it. I felt uncomfortable with it all, so asked if I could pop and see him to sort it out, he said yes, and he offered to meet me after my evening job. I told my husband he was coming to see me as we'd had a little falling out, so we met and he was really jumpy and told me he'd lied to his wife as where he was etc. I texted him the next day to say that whilst he was all jumpy and lying to wife I didn't see how we could be friends, so he texts back that he 'fancied the pants off me, I was hot, but he would never do anything, he was just being honest. My hubby saw this text, went up the wall, and took my phone off me. The next day when I got phone back I texted the guy to tell him what had happened, and he just said "I have done nothing wrong, texting got you into trouble so stop", and we argued as I thought he was being horrible. Basically, I texted him again after a while (after my hubby walking out one night as he is sure I was leading into an affair), to apologise for some of the things I had said in the argument, letting him know just how bad things were at home. He blew up at me saying that how dare my husband threaten to tell his wife, and for us both to leave him alone. He cut off my son as well, and hurt his feelings, and threatened to tell police I was harassing him! I feel like telling his wife as I am disgusted with his behaviour, but I also feel humiliated as he seems to think that I was sort of stalking him. I wish I could sort it out with him, but I can't contact him as he won't reply to texts and has blocked me from facbook. My marriage is back on track now, I know I did wrong by allowing someone to text me stuff like that. But I wish I was still on friendly terms with this guy, and wish my son still had work there. Why is he being so horrible to me, have I done something wrong by trying to resolve things between us?
