if an adult woman in a committed relationship with a man to whom she will marry,struggling with chastity, consents to premarital sex only after emotional stress and feeling talked into it, but not wanting to in her heart, has intercourse, is this sin mortal? is the full consent there?

Frankly, she should get of such a man who is emotionally balckmailing her into endangering her immortal soul. She should find someone more worthy of herself.
 
I find people demand to much on what is and is not mortal sin. All sin is evil in the highest forms since all of it is a handfull of dirt in His face.

That said however its to you that you must judge we can not do that for you. (I’m not assuming your talking about yourself)

Also even sin gives glory to God. In your sins you exalt Him in the fact he is better then you. He is above you.
 
This sort of question is one reason why priests and the Sacrament of Confession exist - they can give better advice to suit the particular circumstances of any sin than anonymous people on the internet.

I would simply pray a sincere Act of Perfect Contrition (resolving to confess my sins), hie me to confession at the next opportunity and be guided by what the priest says. And avoid receiving Communion in the meantime.

Getting rid of the scumbag who pressured me into such a thing would be my first priority though. Who knows what else he’ll pressure you into doing? Or what would happen if you didn’t eventually give in?

Every judge in Family Court will tell you that there is no such legal entity as a “commited relationship.” IOW, rights of child custody, inheritance, property ownership are related to rights attained through a legal marriage. The woman in this equation has already given own her will to the sexual wants of the man. The equation stands: her needs to remain in a state of grace yield to his sexual wants. HUH? This is a couple planning marriage? She should get rid of him ASAP and head to the confessional even sooner.

no way to know her internal dispostion, but she certainly is in an abusive relationship and should seek spiritual and psychological counselling to escape it. by definition, if they are not married, they are not committed. Commitment is a two-way street, not unilateral. The woman is committed to keeping this man even if it means giving up her values, her integrity, her immortal soul and even her safety. The man is committed to his own pleasure and gratification, and the sooner the woman gets a clue the happier she will be.
