MM - it does get confusing at times. Read through the quote threads again - those really helped me.
The affair issue makes your position different from mine, but I think the pros here are right. You have to enforce your boundaries. Has he dropped all contact? Has he made himself transparent? WHere are you with that? If not, it's time for more drastic action.
I'm sure he feels guilty and conflicted and that's why he's bringing up R talks. Validate. It's not time for you to share how you think/feel.
Stay strong - for yourself and your kids.
