All human interaction is manipulation, by this definition...

    Not realy. Simple, direct, unsophisticated interaction, isn't manipulative.

    Sitting at an ordinary dinner at home and asking "Do you want to marry me?" That's not a manipulation.

    Intentionally going out to a fancy dinner, creating a public scene, using some elaborate language reminding them of things you both enjoyed? That's manipulation.
