lots of things
As you said earlier:
So what if he "blames" you. (For what, I'm not clear) You're done playing that game, right?
I hope you go do something fun this week so you aren't even home if he calls. Problem solved!

so much of my marriage was spent in a competition with ah. it's not even about that anymore. unfortunately for him it is still who is right or wrong, he's still carrying blame and resentment, and still competing. i'm not. i just want to be happy and do the right thing....

just want your opinions on whether or not to take his phone calls if he calls this week. i don't want to, but i'm sure it will then be my fault for not taking the calls (if he calls) and then once again he will put the blame on me.
any ideas how to handle this?
IMHO, if you don't want to talk to him you don't have to. He will try to blame you, but you don't have to accept it. You need space for you, time for you to get your head clear and your heart to mend. If he won't understand that, then he is not the loving person you deserve. If he "blames" you for trying to take care of you, he is merely trying to manipulate you into doing something you don't want to do, and that is selfish on his part.
Again, just my opinion.

thing is i've never lied to ah and i know that if the tables were turned i wouldn't want him going with another woman to a concert while we're still married. but i big part of me doesn't even feel guilty anymore because ah gave up on the marriage a long time ago, lies to me, and i don't know where he is at till 4:30 in the morning. he's having an affair with alchold most nights. it's such a double standerd. ah and i don't even talk anymore and i can see real men that have interest in me. the other guy i have mentioned before is still around too.

Now that I've got that out, I can get back to working on myself!

That's what mine did, too. When I think about what my life used to be like, compared to how it is now, I shake my head in disbelief. And reminders like this keep me from getting all nostalgic about the "good times." Thanks for that.
