Initially when I met him, it was clear that he was attracted to me but I wasn't interested because of the age difference - He's 24, I'm 28 and we're both in the same graduate program. When we slept together, I regretted it and wanted us to stop being friends. He says he wants to be with me. I let him know I was dating around. I asked him if he was seeing anyone else and he said no. He's been upfront about his past relationships in telling me how girls were always acting 'crazy' over him.
Later he switched and started saying that he's not ready for a relationship and wants us to remain friends. I told him that either we're together or we're not friends and walked away from him. Afterwards, I felt bad which is surprising because normally I don't care about those things. So I decided to give friendship a try. A few days later, he's begging me for “one last kiss.” -------------->

The next day, I saw him walking around campus at 7 a.m. with some girl which is cool because he and I are just friends, right? But when he sees me, he literally runs into the nearest building. I acted like I didn't see anything. An hour later, he's e-mailing/calling me off the hook to apologize. Suddenly it makes sense to me why girls are always 'acting crazy' over him. Judging from what I witnessed, I can see how that would happen, especially if the woman is immature or emotionally unstable.
A week later, we took a pregnancy test, which was negative. He says to call him when I get my period. I asked him why couldn't he call me? Then he launches into this tirade about how I always make things more difficult than they need to be. Then he tells me to stay the f--- out his life.
Three weeks later, he calls to apologize to me. I accepted it and we're right back to having sex again. My friend says I should just admit that I like him but I don’t know. ------->

In between our little break, he started dating someone. According to him, she's immature, emotionally unstable, and he is trying to break it off with her. I'll admit it hurt that he was so ambivalent about our relationship yet he’s so willing to date someone who clearly needs help. Meanwhile I'm independent, ambitious, intelligent (in spite of my poor choices in men), very attractive and outgoing.
Though I'm fine with our FWB situation, he recently decided that we shouldn't have sex anymore. Tonight I asked him, "If we don't have sex then what am I getting out of this? Why should I remain friends with you?" He says, "You should be happy that I don't look at you as a sex object but you're not. And it's clear that you see me as just a sex object. So you're telling me that it's just sex? Then forget it! We don't have to be friends if that's all that I meant to you." Then he hung up the phone on me.
My friends think he's crazy. I don't know if --------->

I'm being naive but I never got that from him, before or after we had sex. In my eyes, he is a slightly immature individual who makes poor decisions. I chalked it up to his age hence the reason I didn't want to start anything in the first place. What do you think I should do about this guy? What is your take on his behavior?
I'M SORRY IT'S SO LONG! ;) BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSES!
