Is he interested, nervous, or did I scare him off?

I spent a short while on Tinder and on the night of Thanksgiving I ended up speaking to a guy under the sign of Cancer, he told me he has Cancer from his first house to his fifth (fourth?) house. Immediately we were having full conversations... the deeper more philosophical kind, along with some mild joking and small talk in between. It was really pleasant to speak with someone who is more or less on the same wavelength as you. Within the first few days of us talking, in the middle of us speaking about how boundless everyone's creativity is along with sharing stories of how we shared our creative sides with friends while were stoned (he would play music for his friends and I would show my friends my drawings), he said this, "Can I marry you one day? Like literally our philosophies and outlook complement each other so well Jesus Christ". And I replied, "Maybe on day 🙂" and we continued our initial conversation, he then said he was about to cry because of how beautiful the conversation was, and he explained he had a tendency to be very emotional, and told me his personality type, which happens to be the same as mine, ENFP. We continued to speak rather frequently until classes started up again Monday, and from there we were not able to have the strong conversations we had the first 4 days of us speaking, however communication remained. He even let me know in advance that he would be preoccupied from Thursday till the weekend since he has rehearsals and concerts to perform at (he's a music major). Through time he would open up to me, share bits of his emotions with me, and I was always open with him, I did not really hold anything back since I felt so comfortable with him.

We had our first phone conversation last Tuesday (12/11), he was able to squeeze me into his busy day, and he was almost as dorky as I thought he would be, and I loved it. We were cracking jokes, our sense of humor is about the same, and he asked me very specific questions about my perceptions on art, how people interact with art, and how art interacts with people, along with questions of my family, since I mentioned to him the Sunday prior that how much it bothered me how my parents, as loving as they are, scold my little brother constantly, and how I try to provide him with the care and insight no one could provide me as I was growing up. And he loved that I shared that, he related to it since he was the youngest sibling. We shared a considerable amount of information and emotion with one another, and he was surprisingly open with his emotions, and I even got a glimpse at his mood swings. He expressed to me that same night I shared the little brother story (I also mentioned how I would like to paint with him one day, put some music on and go wherever the brushes take us.. then I proceed to ask him how he has been, and asked him how an arrangement he's working on is coming along), he answered later on, saying how he broke down crying in the practice room, I made sure to let him know I was there, reassured him that the fears in his head are just that, fears in his head. His mood progressed that night, he started feeling better, "very loving" he said was how he was feeling as he got cozy in his dorm. I told him after our conversation that I thought he was funny and sweet and how I wished we could have spoken longer. Since he was busy the whole day afterwards, he did not respond.

Later that same week I attempted to be more direct with my affections for him, I am not entirely smitten, but I do appreciate him and I would like to get to know him better, and I guess this is where things got a little rocky because I feel maybe me being more direct scared him? Or turned him off completely? I mentioned at various points in conversation how I liked talking to him, and after sharing an internal monologue of mine with him, I told him I kind of trust him, and that's why I'm comfortable sharing my thoughts, and he loves it when I do. He loves it when I philosophize, or just speak my mind in general. Last week's conversation dwindled down quite a bit, he mentioned on Thursday how busy he was, and I replied saying it's fine and that there is no pressure, and I did not get a reply until I messaged him this past Tuesday, checking up on him, and he said he was doing fine, and that he had just been super busy, and that he was at a rehearsal at that moment.

I asked him how that was going, he did not reply until yesterday morning, saying how it was "going", and that he had another rehearsal that day, and he asked me how I was, and I responded, a bit disheartened, and very much anxious as to what his thoughts were about me, I really tried grounding myself, saying that maybe he really IS busy. But I had dealt with guys giving me that I'm busy business, and that was triggering for me.

So, did my direct displays of affection/appreciation from the previous week scare him off? Or is he really just busy? Or maybe he just needs time to process everything, especially since it's still so early on?

I have a tendency to get rather anxious when I am speaking to someone I see as a potential partner, especially through text. Also I have done my research on Cancer men.

We haven't met yet in person, he lives rather far away from me, I go to school in NYC and he goes to school in Boston. Also, here is some more info on me:
