My concern is how do you know that he is truthful. Haven’t you been here before? Other than pulling together some very good concessions and explanations for his behavior, what has he done to PROVE his word? He is relying on your need to forgive him and hold this marriage together.
Look at it his way… Has he changed or come to any new realization that he could not have done last month, or when you were in those counseling sessions when he was making some breakthroughs? Why didn’t he bring these things up then? I recall it was SOOO difficult for him to talk about them. Now he seems to have simply turned the page and accept his shortcoming and is willing to suddenly deal with them.
And his excuses that your comments “didn’t occur to him” don’t hold much wather either, since that seems to be his standard fall back response. On one hand he is alble to think through a list of concessions sufficient to win you back, but on the other hand some things “didn’t occur to him?”
Something still smells fishy and I don’t thin he has come clean yet. Can you say sociopath?
