Thanks all. I think we went too fast. I think we are all or nothing types. We started emailing about LB and then we were talking on the phone. I can tell that dh is working hard to change his phrasing and his perspective. But it is so stressful at this time. I emailed Dr. Harley to see about taking a couple of steps back.

If you are uncomfortable with the pace and level of interaction, then that's good enough reason to pull back, IMO.
It's funny how when someone has violated our boundaries time and time again, we can lose the ability to know where our boundaries are. I believe it's part of the healing process to notice your feelings of discomfort, pay attention to them, and do what you need to do to get back to "comfortable."
I think taking a couple of steps back is a good idea.
Not an expert, just my opinion. Hugs to you.
