My IPad and phone used to sync messages now my IPad is forcing me to stay signed up for IMessage. I can not send regular text messages now.

An iPad has no ability by itself to send or receive SMS or MMS messages. Those require a cellular telephone voice connection, which no iPad is capable of. So yes, to send or receive SMS texts, an iPad must be paired with an iPhone.

Apple isn't forcing you to do anything.  It’s inherent limitations of the technology of cellular texting.  When you send or receive SMS texts from an iPad, it is the paired iPhone that actually sends and receives those texts, using your cellular telephone‘s text messaging service and plan.  The iPhone then shares those to the iPad via their common wifi intranet network.

Without being paired to an iphone, an iPad is restricted to internet messaging services like iMessage only  (i.e. non cellular voice channel messaging)
