There's more - he texted me tonight saying he's "sorry from the bottom of his heart for his actions" and "not sure he'll ever forgive himself." He wants to sit down in the next couple of days to talk it out and "get everything on the table." He knows I am planning on leaving tomorrow AM and that I don't plan to be back in the next couple of days.

I responded by letting him know that I didn't want to talk yet, that I wasn't planning to be back for a week or so, but that I still love my family and think that somewhere under all of this he's still a good man. Also mentioned my reason as going to my family as "getting my head clear."

He also had to bring the keys back to the car I am taking - he accidently took those with him and was nice about bringing them back. I was cordial and thanked him.

I was just improving like crazy - not sure if I did well or made it worse. Part of me thinks that if he wants to talk, I should go for it, but part of me thinks that he just wants an opportunity to convince me it's not the A that's the problem so that he can absolve himself of the guilt he's feeling. I think he's going to throw a million reasons at me why it wasn't the A that is the problem.

So, would love any coaching on 1) When/how to agree to talk to him; b) how to respond if he starts hurling hurtful things at me to explain away A.
