Ok, so I had this strange feeling today he was having a hard time. He's been extra helpful and generous ($1200 lap top yesterday, didn't need it-mine is only one year old) since the whole weekend mess.

Today he sends me an email that says:
"I'm sorry. One of my former students came in and virtually collapsed on me. . .told me her husband was leaving her. It hit me pretty good. She's devastated. It's hard not to compare it to "us".

I never wanted to hurt you . . .
I really am sorry for this . . ."

I was really angry. What kind of lame apology was that? What is he sorry for? Leaving? Cheating? Telling me he doesn't love me a million times? Telling me he wants to marry OW? Bringing her around my kids? WHAT?

So I am asking for advice on how to respond. I don't know why I got a feeling he was having trouble today, but I did. I have prayed over and over for someone to come into his life and show him the way back to his family. Unsure if this is that person or not. I haven't responded to him yet. I feel like I should let him think this through until I see him at home tonight (he does bedtime with us every night).

What do you think? BG and Hope suggested I validate the student's feelings and stay away from his and any R talk.
