I don't know if it's fair to say he deliberately wanted to lead Sierra on. Trust me from my own experience, which is actually pretty similar to Cody's with Sierra, that it's very hard to straight-up tell a person you don't like them. You don't want to hurt their feelings, and you also don't want them to become upset/angry with you. There was a girl at my school who was obsessed with me for a long time, and I honestly just didn't have the heart or the guts to tell her to back off. To be honest, I was scared of two things: What she would do to herself, and what she would do to me. In terms of hypocrisy, you are very right, but I really don't think he was doing it on purpose. Also, notice how the clingier Sierra became with Cody, the less clingy he became with Gwen. I think that after being ooh the receiving end, he knew what if felt like and didn't want to put Gwen through that, while still expressing his feelings for her. Now, he's definitely not a perfect, flawless person. Nobody is. He's a teenage boy who goes through angst, drama, emotional issues, and, most of all, relationship issues, just like the rest of us. That's the way I see it at least, but you can disagree if you choose, and I'm totally cool with that.
