Why did you include "point out to him that he's holding you back"? He is not holding you back. He is stalling, and if you would like him to finish the deal, own that. Ask him to quit stalling. This is a business negotiation and how you emotionally feel about the position he has taken has no part in the discussion. In a business negotiation, what possible concern would it be of his that you feel "held back"? His concern is to hang onto his money as long as possible whether it rightfully belongs to you or not. Your concern is to get what you are due, and you're allowing it to drag on because you're afraid of something. Afraid he'll decide not to be with you after all? Afraid he'll reneg on his agreement? Fear is not your friend.
