dissuadable
Open to discouragement
Dissuadable describes someone who can be talked out of something—open to changing their mind when presented with counterarguments.
The opposite of stubborn or resolute: She was dissuadable once we explained the risks.
Often appears in the negative: Once he's decided, he's not dissuadable.
