Ohio Mark: What should have I said when he said he missed the family?
Also, if he says he wants to open up to me and talk about us again, what should I say/do?
When he said he misses you and the family, your husband was speaking a foreign language. Fortunately, I speak "Alien Spew," so here is the translation of what he said:
"I still love you and the kids. I also love this second life that I have created. I am so damn confused about what to do next."
Give him a good reason, and he will leave you. Do what H4C says, and you have a shot.

Listen, listen, listen. Acknowledge but do not agree:
"This is probably very difficult for you." "You have been through a lot." "I can understand how you would feel that way." "While I don't agree, I can see how you would feel that way."
