The only other explanation I can think of (and this doesn't seem likely considering that text) is that he's very immature and fickle with his emotions, you know, saying he loves one girl one minute and another the next. In which case you're better off without someone like that being interested in you now and messing with your head.

reader, anonymous, writes (3 September 2009): He's either remarkably insensitive, really trying to get back at you for dumping him, or trying to make you jealous. You say you 'secretly' still like him, but that he knows what he's doing upsets you. Isn't that a contradiction?
You can guess at this forever. Or you could just communicate.
