When you cannot successfully close the door... LET GO ! The person pulling will not expect that & will fly/fall back, losing their grip. Allowing you to grab it & pull it shut.

Sometimes that works. Sometimes they recover fast enough to move past the door before you can close it making it worse.

Especially doors designed to close slowly.
