I think you are right, anything you do right now would work against you. I think your best chance is that he does some soul searching while he is gone. You have shown him that you can forgive him, but he is going to need time to believe that. And then he is going to need to forgive himeself. He'll also need to admit to himself that he has been wrong. That is a tough one. Maybe the hardest part. Pride is a real challenge. I'm sorry!
