Yep, pretty much.

But he came home, right? Coming home is just a step, not the whole journey.

You might need to give him some time and space to adjust to the new way of things.

You can't let this kind of thing get to you. If you do, you'll never be able to pull off doing the more difficult parts of this.

He's still in chaos and confused, and his words and actions will bear that out. Just be patient, and give him a reason to miss you. Maybe the next time he wants to change your date night, you should say "oh, I already have plans to go out that night".
