I have a new site at cameronryan23.weebly.com. I want to point a .tk domain to it but I don't want to mask it because no path forwarding. However, the IP of the domain isn't the website.

IP: http://199.34.228.53/ Proof: http://network-tools.com/default.asp?prog=ping&host=cameronryan23.weebly.com

So is there any other solution where I can point MyWantedTKDomain.tk to cameronryan23.weebly.com?

You can only mask. Free hosting services like them won't allow you to put your own domain unless if you pay for it.

As Jackster said, free hosting services typically do not allow you to do that. If you are a domain admin or premium user however, you can typically do that via a simple DNS record where u set your domain to resolve to a different IP but be sure that this will ignore URL paths. i.e Both myoldsite.com & myoldsite.com/mypage.html will resolve to the same new ip or alias you configure: mynewsite.com. If you would like to take care of the URLs, this can be done via HTTP redirection (assuming that you have successfully migrated your old stuff from the old site to the new site).

On the other hand if you are not a premium user, you can always make use of JavaScript ;) For example the following code (when pasted in your myolddomain.com HTML file) will redirect the user from myolddomain.com to mynewdomain.com:

<script>
  window.location='http://mynewdomain.com';
</script>
