I think Stigmata has described your H perfectly, at least frm the little I know of him. But the puzzle pieces now seem to fit. If you say you have seen remorse in your husband, then I believe you. What I recall reading of you past did not convince me of such.
My step-mom’s son is a sociopath, at least as well as we can determine. And he DOES show real remorse and concern. He is so nice and so caring and so willing to help others that it just drips out of him. But after he has stolen from someone and he apologize in what seems to be the most sincere and feeling way, he is off to his next con job.
So how can one really know if a sociopath is exhibiting remorse? I have no clue, except to judge them by their history. If you are fine with his history, then all should be well. I just don’t read it like you.
One other thing. I see some here still referring to your H as LD. I don’t think there is anything LD about him, he’s just LD with whomever is his wife at the moment. He is HD with all the other women he is chasing.
