It sounds like you are gaining control of your relationship with him LJ and that is the key here.
As long as you have control of yourself, he can't manipulate you.
Let him make an a$$ of himself if he wants to... just maintain your composure when talking to to others while he blasts away.. You know he's just validating what you are saying when he does that and everyone else will too.
He put a condom on the cushion between you two? Is that his idea of romance and make up sex? Good Lord.
You are doing a great job of fending off his behavior you just need to keep it up a bit longer I think. He will eventually go into hide mode when he realizes his reverse-exposure efforts aren't taking and everyone stops talking to him.
