I too believe your h will return to the states. I have spent time in China and it's way way different. I would think the newness would wear off after awhile.
Your h needs to be on this journey right now. It seems he felt he was missing out on life.
You have been so strong NLT, but remember don't waste too much time on ex. Life has so much more to offer you.
