Perfect.

Don't let him put it back on YOU -- make him LEAD.

Then, if even he DOES, DON'T COMMIT TO ANYTHING RIGHT THERE. THANK him for being open with you, and sharing his thoughts, and tell him "that you've given me a lot to think about, to factor in to my own decisions that I've started formulating this past week. I think we should get back together maybe this coming weekend, and talk further?"

And if he DOESN'T commit to anything, and/or it's just a bunch o' b.s., I would very businesslike say "thank you for giving me such an accurate picture of where your head is at. You've given me a lot to think about, thanks. Hate to cut you off, but I have to go _______________ " -- and get up and leave.
