No.

The text of the conversations was not copyrighted, nor did you sign any contact which stated that you couldn't publish it. Even if you did... he'd still have to show damages. In some alternate universe he might be able to claim that your "keep this up and I'm going to post them on Facebook..." is extortion. However, that would be a criminal act and the police/courts wouldn't waste a second on it -- you didn't ask for money, the act itself would be perfectly legal, he posted this stuff on the internet, etc.

Complete bluff.
