I think you definately need at least a few days apart. He is obviusly still wound up, and he needs time to think things through as well. One piece of advice, try not to talk to him much if at all for the next few days. If you are always talking on the phone with him, then you might as well just be at home with him. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying you can't talk to him at all, but just be aware that this is time for you two to do your own thinking and then you can get together and talk things out.
One time when I went to the city for the weekend to see a friend, FI and I a big fight before I left and he thought maybe we should take a week to figure things out, but as soon as I went to the city, he was calling non stop. I only took the phone calls in the evening so he could say goodnight to the kids, but really, he said he wanted the time to think, and instead he spent the time calling me. Arrggghhh! MEN!
