Lois has feelings for Clark? What would make you say that?! I don't see Lois as trying to pressure him into admitting feelings for her as much as she is just trying to find out exactly where she stands right now. The honest answer is that he would be tempted to sleep with Lana if the situation presented itself, but that he would save her if he had no other option because he vowed to protect her. And that maybe Lana doesn't know everything .
I realize I wasn't very clear when I wrote this. Like I said, I perfectly understand why Lois asked the questions that she did. And I probably should have said that I don't think LOIS thought she was pressuring Clark or was trying to pressure him. And I am glad that they had that conversation, because it cleared some of the air.
But I still think the conversation itself put pressure on Clark.
Like any reader, my expriences are coloring my reading. And I know what it's like to have a friend that you're not in love with be in love with you. It puts pressure on you, no matter how much the other person denies it. So I'm senasative to any circumstance that may force a person to say they have feelings for someone that they don't. Because I had to be careful with that for so long. (OT - the exprience ended happily.)
