P-Angel,
I'll tell you why... because I've had feelings for him for almost a year and holding it in was making me more frustrated, so I wanted to get this off my chest. And that is exactly what I said to him when I said I like him, that I wasn't trying to force him into anything. And then he said I shouldn't hold it in if that's how I felt. Was it pointless to tell him my feelings? Probably YES, but I'm better off being honest with him. If a person doesn't feel for you then telling him isn't going to magically change that, so I'm not sure how that is even manipulation.
I think there is a difference between telling someone your feelings for them, and coming off pushy afterward (to me). The latter is what I'm trying to avoid. I've made no mention of my feelings for him since a month ago when we had that conversation. I took a chance of him backing away completely when I told him my feelings. Now that he's fine with it, I don't want to do anything to make him want to end our friendship too. That's all.
And to everyone else, thank you for your advice. I haven't been contacting him other than this one time when I asked his opinion on something. I think it's better to not contact him unless I have something meaningful to say anyway, so I will back off..

geminilove,
From my experience, I can't say a Leo man to be ping pong like. They are pretty reliable. Yours is playing games.
I agree with Nikki on the Libra test thing. When they are busy you have to get busy. I never get more calls and messages than when I'm out having a good time with the girls. It is extremely attractive to them that you have an active social life even though they will pout and try to make you cancel your plans for them. If you freak out and start texting them and calling them and complaining about the amount of time you spend together it is the surest way to get them to exit stage left.
I have just started keeping things light as air with him and it works wonders for our relationship. Sweetens him right up and has him wanting to spend time with me as opposed avoiding me because I'm going to corner him into a "talk" about the relationship. Now he brings up thorny topics on his own - without my prompting. I just let him talk and listen intently because you learn more that way.

YOU DON'T NEED THE COCONUT OIL IF THEY ARE WEARING BURKAS.
I LOVE THE STATEMENT (YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT DETAILS) THAT IS TELLING THEM DON'T THINK FOR YOUR SELF.
ON THE TEAM TATE ALL WOMEN ARE ONLY LET ON BOARD BECAUSE THEY THINK FOR THEM SELF WE MAY SHOW THEM A FEW TRICKS (NO PUN INTENDED) BUT ITS UP TO THEM HOW TO APPLY THERE SKILLS.
Well...people are all different I guess.
Many people are capable of moving on if they know the other person doesn't have the same feelings or want a relationship with them. I've always been upfront with them how I feel... even though it doesn't always work out. I feel like I'm being honest telling them how I feel, then I have no regrets and can move on. I never thought this would be seen as manipulation.. :/

well, I haven't met him in person yet. I doubt I will. He is just too young for me. However from the taste of things, I already am experiencing his intensity. I get "Good nights" at night and just this morning, "Good Morning!" text.
He doesn't flirt with any other lady. He is quite the smart fellow. He is outspoken... in a very sweet way. Tells me his brother told him he is fat. Asks me if he looks fat on cam. I tell him No.
I tell him, we have to find you an age-appropriate lady. He keeps telling, 'FUM, that lady is you. I'm seriously interested in you.'
Is that your experience with Scorpio man?
We are a bit more holding back types, no?
