Your approach is far more intelligent than you probably realize right now.
Other people want you to join them in order to feel secure with their own decisions -- their attempts to pressure you are really about them, not you. What you're doing can make people incredibly uncomfortable, and when people become uncomfortable, they often seek to attack and/or control whatever produces that effect (which means you). They're afraid of your light.
It sounds like you're in a position where you could have a lot of fun with people who want to control you... by twisting the proverbial blade that's making them so uncomfortable.
