He is likely to try to come back, very sorry and very remorseful and he doesn't know what came over him and he'll never do it again and he will do anything to regain your trust and he is horrified by his own behavior and he knows he doesn't really deserve another chance and and and ... do you have a plan for when that happens?
Yes. No contact at all. If she shows up at door I won't answer it. He's blocked on phone/email. I have family members and friends ready to come to my aid should I drop them a text.
I know anything he would have to say is a lie. You describe it well. I am just looking forward to getting on with life now and being healthy. This wjas a huge lesson learned. I'll take boring and mundane over good looks and a 'spark' anyday now.
