If his nitpicking and snippiness are not over serious, legitimate issues, I wouldn't even apologize. Apology can make you seem ingratiating, needy, and clinging.

If I had my guess, (and it is only a guess- you are closer to your sitch than I am) your moving forward & being happier with yourself has something to do with it. Also his inability to identify and deal with his issues within himself. Him trying to blame you for all his problems isn't working, and he knows it deep down.

I'm glad to hear that you're not letting it get to you. Odds are that (just like little kids tantrums), he will have completely forgotten about it tomorrow. (Or sooner even!)
