Okay, so I've REALLY liked this kid named Joey for over a year now. We used to be sorta-kind friends, but we're not anymore, because a conflict that came up last year. He said he hated me after that.
I just recently started saying "hi" again to him in the halls (We haven't talked since last year), to see if the months that have gone by have been long enough for him to fogive me for what I did.
There's also a girl that's a grade younger than us, Vanessa, and she likes him. He knows that she does, but he kind of sent off a vibe that showed he was annoyed by her.
Here's my problem: My friend Quinlan is friends with him, and today in one of their classes, (She told me about this later on), he came up to her and was like, "I have special news! :]"
(DO NOT ANSWER YET. I'm continuing the story in the Edit section of this question because I'm starting to run out of room. So wait until you see my continuation under this question. Thanks.)

And she asked what, and he said, "Well, Vanessa likes me and I kinda like her back." She asked why that was of any signifigance to her, and he said, "Well now you can tell Anna [me] to stop liking me."
But the thing he doesn't get is that I /can't/ stop liking him. I never chose to in the first place. Either way after she told me what he said, it made me think. I had already planned to give him a Christmas card later that day to be nice, but I wasn't sure if I should do that still because of what he said earlier and the fact that he knew that I liked him.
Obviously, I'm at home now and the day is over. I'm not going to say what I ended up doing, because I want to know what all of you out there think I should have done. Let's assume that I'm still at school. What should I do? Give him the present anyway? Tell him he's an asshole [lmao]? Tell him I like someone else? Or a different option.

For those of you who want to know what I DID do: [BTW, just as background info, you should know that he's been rude to me before, too. And so I decided to just end everything here.]
Me: Can I talk to you for a second?
Him: [Avoids eye contact] Um...eh...sure. Go for it.
Me: There was this guy I liked back in the 6th grade. His name was Chris. I was totally crazy about him, but then I got to know him better as a person. Then suddenly I stopped liking him. You know why? Because I realized he was an asshole. [I give him the gift and card, which says, "I know this isn't much, but I wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas"] Merry Christmas...
