Caleb wasn't intentionally manipulating Priya
I have seen this take a bunch and I don't understand how people came to it.
Caleb wants to do better after being the first boot last season
He decided it makes the most sense to ally with Priya because she won
He puts in effort to make Priya see him as a good ally and doesn't realise that Priya is attracted to him and thinks he's flirting with her (almost any time Priya talks about Caleb in a romantic sense we get a scene showing he thinks it's purely an alliance in the game)
Caleb then develops romantic feelings for Priya and doesn't realise what he was doing before looked like on the outside so he doesn't comment on it
I feel like the show was pretty clear on Caleb's thought process but so many people have somehow come to the opposite conclusion
