Slow and steady wins the race... hopefully!

Remember that time is on your side,
If he drags things out then ok, you want things drug out, you want him to have to do all the ground work here. Ignore the falling house prices because that’s only money and is of little importance. I am sorry that it places you in a strange position as far as not being able to move on to a new place for yourself, but for now just enjoy that house and make the most of it. Your last response with Jeff’s suggestion of leaving out the "if" sounds like a really good one.

Then just go hang out in the beautiful park or somewhere and forget about this for a while. If he was so completely done with you he would be doing everything in his power to make this as quick and clean as he could. I know dragging it out is hard on you but it makes him have to face it too. Selling the house was his idea not yours so you are not being a push over. Just try and always have a back up plan anytime you schedule to meet him like last weekend, that way you always have something better to do and its no loss to you.
