You're getting some sound advice. You know your H best, act accordingly, just try and put yourself in his shoes right now. What is your heart telling you he really wants at this point? If its more time, give it to him. If its freedom, blow off the continuance and pave the way for him to leave, thats the smartest thing you could do.
I can certainly understand you resisting out of not wanting anything to do a D you feel you're forced into. I'm in the same boat, and I don't feel its fair because I have no choice. But, thats the way it goes unfortunately, so you just try and accept it, let it happen if thats what he wants, and hope it turns around. it just might, but you have to let go of the need to control his decision, it only pushes thenm hopelessly away.
Do something you enjoy tonight and get your mind off the sitch.
