Problem is that the settlement proposal he's put is not acceptable.
Our financial circumstances are very complicated - lots of secretly accumulated debt, missing money, etc. None of which he's addressed.
I feel stuck now because if I respond to his email by saying I am ready to settle, he will use it later to say that I lied and manipulated him into another stalling device. If I respond by trying to say can't confirm, categorically, that i will settle at this meeting, he has threatened not to attend.
He wants assets from me and he wants them NOW. He seems to have a particular date in mind and hence his stipulation that we have to settle at the next mediation meeting.
