TrentC, that's good advice. I think you'll got nuts trying to second guess his reasons for wanting couselling.
What did you reply?
My feeling is, let him work hard for your attention - that doesn't mean play games, it means tap into your self-respect and don't go running to fast towards him.
Tell him you'll think about his offer & get back to him when you have decided. Be civil, but short. You control the communication and keep it to email if it's the best way to keep comminication positive and not destructive.
Now, time for you to work on your optimism? Tell yourself you can win this. You haven't tried everything yet. Go back to the Goal setting excersice in DR and lower your expectations.
Of course I don't know your sitch like you do, but my hunch is that this is very winnable. I reckon he might just come around.
Also I think you need to go to your new thread and put more detail. I'll head over there now..
