You get an extra big hug from DrPsych. From my experience of working with young people, 13 is just a horrible age! Boys don't mature as fast as girls (boys in their teen years are not from mars, they are from another galaxy). You cannot possibly figure out what is going on in his head because he is not you. He probably told you he liked you to reassure you of the fact that he likes you as a friend because he knew he had his eye on another girl. He is probably ignoring you now because he is embarrassed, not sure what to say and hasn't a clue how to handle the situation. Remember, he is not 'you' and doesn't know how to express himself like you do.
It sounds like this guy liked you as a mate, but maybe he is a bit scared about the whole romance and kissing thing. You cannot make him like you as a girlfriend and he should be able to ask other girls out as you are not a couple, although I know that hurts your feelings. Everyone gets knocked back and rejected sometimes at your age - if they don't then they will come in for a big fall later in life. It is part of figuring out what sort of boys are compatible with you, and sorting out your own emotions. I got a whole load of heart-ache at 13 to 17 from numerous stinky boys, but it worked to my advantage in later life as from the age of 18 I would take no messing from my dates. The plus point from this situation is that you had a friend who was male who confessed he liked you. That means that in the future you will have other male friends like you, and more than like you.
