I would hold strong, even if you dont hear from him...even if you see him, no matter what state he is in.
A lot of times in the past w my RAH, when I would get broken enough to take action like this,(or stop taking action), he would pull out all the stops in dramaville.
I would expect some drama, something to tug at your heartstrings.
Its a diversion. If he means it, he will just do it.
If he is thinking about it, then it is chipping away at his denial.
Like Noday said, "all will be revealed."
But, i think its best to stay your course, here, and treat him almost as if he is a toddler testing you. If you cave, he will see that whatever tactic he used worked, and then you are in for more of the same.
Good Luck, and keep us posted
