Dear gresshoppe:

You are welcome.

“He insisted… I allow myself to get talked into something that doesn’t feel right“- if you explained to him that when pressured (as in someone insisting), you have a tendency to be talked into doing what doesn’t feel right for you, and you point out to him what exactly he said that placed pressure on you.. and then, he does it again and again, then it’d tell you that he cares more about getting his way than about your emotional well-being.

“He insisted… said there is no pressure“- to insist (online definition) is to demand something forcefully, not accepting refusal, and that is pressure. So, he pressured you and then denied that he did…?
