If you are the type to totally not pressure me into anything then I will return the calls.

Totally agreed. I had a friend like this as well. If he had class the next morning, he'd never want to go out(obviously). But if he didn't and you did, he wouldn't care, he'd beg you to go out. We've had some brutal fights in the past because he couldn't understand why I didnt want to hit up the Lib on a Tuesday night when I had class at 8am the next morning. After awhile I just stopped responding to his messages/calls if I didnt feel like going out that night, because it sure beats arguing with him for the next hour about why I dont want to. Its funny because to this day he bitches about how hard I am to get ahold of, yet my more level-headed friends never have a problem.
Because of this, I can sometimes avoid people's calls/texts if I don't feel like going out, I guess because its just easier than arguing with them about why I dont want to. Totally depends on the person who's calling/texting.
