I think a lot of people who show up here are nurturers/fixers/codependents. It feels good to fix, nurture, produce results. But we have to break out of that habit.

I don't think it'll come across as retribution. If it does, it's on him, not you. Not reasonable to be naked w/ you while he's seeing someone else. That's sadistic. Just don't do it. No explanation needed. If pressed, you can say I don't want to do that any more.

Tough not to try to mind read his change in behavior. Most likely, it's to satisfy his sense of guilt/righteousness. I hope you'll not hang any hope on it.
