I think you've handled things pretty well.. you've dealt with his insanity in a reasonable way.

This turns my stomach, BUT he says that if he meets someone that he feels a connection with and they want to have sex, he will do it. He isn't moving out with the intention to meet a woman, but if he does....
if he wants to live by "dating" rules... then give him want he wants. Tell him that he may not care if YOU screw someone, and HE may not want to know about it... but you want to know if someone YOU are dating, is screwing someone else. Because at that point, you would no longer wish to date them.
if you're really, REALLY sure he's not already screwing someone... you might want to hold off on actually telling him this, until you've had a few dates.
Telling him this, is going to be a "negative". I think you might wnat to build up some "positive" buffer points before hitting him with that.

He saw that we were starting to slip into our same old habits.
bad habits, or good habits? is he scared of actually enjoying positive habits with you? (sounds familiar, if so. sigh. wilful destruction of positives between you. )
