The first thing you need to do is stop apologizing to him. You may have seemed pushy, but it's nothing to apologize repeatedly for. It comes across as being clingy, which is what might have turned him off.
I don't think he's mad at you, it seems he's simply not interested and doesn't know how else to make that clear. Back off for a while, let him be the one to contact you first. If he doesn't, then he wasn't much of a friend, was he?
