I think he likes you a lot, but has never shown it. Sometimes like women, men would hide their feelings from someone they like. The more intense the feelings, the less you'll know they like you.
Which is a shame because it seems there are people that are dying to be with you, but you might never find out about it because the more you like someone the harder it seems it is to let them know you do.

We are very interesting creatures...Some things we do hardly make any sense at all.
