Keep it in the process for now. You need it as LEVERAGE. Do NOT tell him what you told us. It would give HIM leverage to manipulate you if that is his intention.
Follow through with the plan I outlined, act 'as if' the case is proceeding as planned. You need to keep your options open. Think of it as a poker game, you need to call his bluff BEFORE you fold your cards.
Remember, it is possible he will agree to everything we outlined and you will actually be able to begin the trust rebuilding.
Also remember that he may not be ready yet and you will have to follow through with the support case to get anything at all.
So, keep your options open. You still do not know his intentions. You only know what he SAYS and that is not something you can trust right now.
Be strong. Nothing has to be decided or changed TODAY.
