Actually, I have been all-dark since that email. H has been stepping up his pursuit, and I answered one of his calls yesterday...got sucked into a conversation, but was able to deflect all the ways he tried to throw everything back at me.
He admitted to being a compulsive liar, said he'll never be able to do enough to make me happy, said he missed me and the kids like crazy, that he should just blow his brains out. Then sent me a 'goodbye' text message. I sent his mother over to talk to him and she reported that he acted as if nothing was wrong.
I stuck to my guns: counselor or attorney--his choice.
Back to being dark--it will get a little more complicated when I return home tomorrow. I have appointments with both C and A on Monday.
Things are shaking loose. Just wish it weren't such a bumpy ride.
