Thank you for your reply, Cadet...

I can see the confusion, but the idea of him being depressed right now surprises me. When I caved in, it was because he actually started crying, saying that he NEEDED to leave (our marriage / me). After a while, when we both calmed down some, and I said "ok," he leapt on me, hugging and grinning! Later that day, he started whistling when doing some chores - something I hadn't realized was missing for a long time...

He's not so cheerful as he was that afternoon, but depressed? Obviously, there is something I'm not getting...
