I'd think so. To his credit, he's afraid to lose you. You're a good person who is on top of his behaviours and I suspect he's aware he's a better person by being with you even though it's not enough and it's still damaging.

I'm in the same situation. This morning I woke up with multiple "I love you" notes taped to the walls, fridge, mirrors.. over compensating.

Gottman Institute sends out weekly emails (Tuesdays and Thursdays) about relationship strategies. He talks a lot about the Four Horsemen that is the death of relationships. Both my partner and I receive them. It might be worth a look?
