If he does this again, try not to lash out (hard I know), but try to stay calm and do like you said at the end. Ask him to leave the papers at the house so you can look over them or have you be served at work, but you would like to look over them alone before signing anything. I also recommend a L looking at them too. Try to stay calm and validate. Let him know that you understand he is upset and that you don't want to make a decision based on emotion and that you need the time to become calm, look over the papers, and sign if he still feels that will make him happy.

I am glad you got to talk, but remember you don't want him to come back without getting some help whether it is MC at first, then IC, but he needs to get help and your marriage needs help so make sure you let him know that coming home means going to counseling.
