no matter what he says, tell him you NEED TIME TO THINK ABOUT IT
b/c 1) you DO and
2) because it's not supposed to be "easy" for him to walk back in.
Couldn't agree more. There have been too many stories here of people who took their WAS back too quickly and it backfired in a big way. His acknowledgement of his own issues is just the very beginning of a very long process that he must go through before he'll be ready for recon. There will be progress and there will be setbacks. He is still at the stage where you really can't believe anything he says. Give it time and see what his ACTIONS show.
