English term or phrase: through with him
Third, we also can’t help people who don’t want it yet.
Some people know they want guidance eventually,
but they just don’t want it yet. In my work, these are people who say,
“I’m coming to church. I know I need to be there. Just not yet.”
Or we may hear, “I’m going to stop. I’m going to put it down.
I know I need to put it down, but not yet.” Or “I’m not going to marry him.
We’re just kicking it. We’re going to break up because
he isn’t marriage material. But I’m not through with him just yet.”

ainda temos contas a acertar/ainda não ficou tudo dito/ainda não rompi com ele


Explanation:
Acho que todas as sugestões são válidas, independentemente de ser a relação que está em jogo, ou alguma questão que ainda não ficou "definitivamente" resolvida.

No entanto, "be through (with someone)" significa literalmente, romper/terminar/acabar um relacionamento com alguém:

to have ended a relation

Terá de ver qual o sentido exato no texto.
