The term "pressing issue" is a problem or task that you are being urged (pressured) to solve, soon or immediately, before there are other consequences. The problem is figuratively "hanging over you" like some physical object (in a worrisome or threatening manner) due to the possible negative consequences.

Simply put, you have to devote attention to something bad that threatens to cause more problems unless it is resolved.

How can someone have forgiven you but keeps hanging it over your head?

AnswerWhen you forgive someone you are suppposed to let it go then. If he/she keeps hanging it over your head then it's still an issue with that person and it seems to me that the forgiveness is very shallow. It also seems to me that the person is keeping the issue alive with you instead of forgiving and putting it in the past. This will only cause trouble in the relationship. When you truly forgive someone you let it go and put the issue in the past. When you forgive someone for something there should no longer be hard feelings towards that person therefore the issue would not be brought up at any time and certainly not hanging it over your head at every opportunity.
