Why did he just leave?

I was friends with this guy for the school year and I did like him. I finally told him that I had feelings for him but he didn’t feel the same way. We stayed friends because friendship was more important to me. At the end of the school year he said that we would hang out because he was leaving for college. A few weeks pasted and I decided to text if we were still hanging out. He first says “I don’t know maybe later but you won’t like me and I will hurt you.” Second time I talked to him he asked me if I would cuddle with him. I asked him why would you cuddle with someone you don’t have feelings for? He said “I never said I didn’t.” I tried to talk to again but he wanted to get rid of me so he dropped me as a friend saying I get mad to much as an excuse. I fight to keep him around. He asked me “what would you do if you saw me in the shower alone?” I asked “why would I be there?” He says “we can’t be friends goodbye” I called him and he still told me goodbye. I now haven’t spoken to him in over a month and concerned that I may never see him again. Even though the college is local . Anyway I want a better understanding of what happened? Please can someone explain so it can finally be put to rest.
