Totally agree with Florence here - your example isn't even what I would call a resentment - how can he resent you for agreeing with his idea/method of payment? It just doesn't even fit the definition of what a resentment IS from what you've shared about the incident.

It sounds like he is manipulating the past to give him something to pick at now. Same lyrics, different melody.
