Sounds to me like a threat. Like he can do what he wants and you will just have to deal with it. ARGH!! He is soooooooo in need of counseling. He is really good at blaming others. So to me he is also saying he don't feel bad for his actions or how he treats you because you are to blame because you should have left him.
I think he is acting like all is okay because I am sure he expects JV is going to cave in. I would just stick to your guns and just follow your heart. Your heart will lead you in the right direction.
Maybe this will be the jolt he needs to get some counseling or some kind of professional help. I am honestly afraid he will become violent in the direction he seems to be headed in.
