Sooo, let me get this straight. He confessed he has been seeing this woman for ..how long now? And they were thinking of moving in together? And she went with him on trips? WOW, sounds familiar!!!
And yes, I see what you are saying about him SAYING he will do things but that is different than actually doing them. And it does sound fishy that he reacts this way the moment you seemed determined to file. But maybe this was his wake up call? Time will tell.
One thing to remember: he pulled closer the moment you pulled away. Dont surrender your guns yet sweetie, Dan is a serial cheeter and has hurt you too many times. Proceed with caution and do NOT ingnore your gut feelings. Good luck and I really wish for you this time to be the real thing... love K
