There's this guy (let's call him B), and we both like each other. He told me he really likes me. Yet, a lot of the times, he brings up other guys, or just specific guys when I'm talking to him in weird ways. For example, there's this guy in my school who he thinks likes me at least a little bit even though I don't think so and I don't really like him. So sometimes, B brings up the guy and he says, "You guys are the perfect couple." "I can see you walking with him and holding hands - lovebirds." He says this in kind of a joking way.
B and I were talking about the show, Lincoln Heights, once and I mentioned how I liked one of the male characters and thought he was cool and B replied with: "He looks gay."
Main questions: Why does he say these things? And don't guys not like to talk about other guys with girls they like, if so, why does he do that?

Top marks to work1hours - people, highly recommend you check out his answers to other questions...
In the meantime: During the beginning of a relationship guys can be a bit nervous and especially jealous of competition. My guess is that B is trying to deal with his anxiety by gauging your responses to his comments - that is to check whether you're possibly interested in other people. Of course if you talk about other guys - even TV characters - as being attractive this can be threatening to him, hence his response.

He's testing how much you care about him. When he mentions that you'd look good with someone else, you're supposed to say "No, you and I are the perfect couple." or "Nope, we're the lovebirds, you and I!"
When you compliment another male, he gets jealous and says negative things about him, like from the play you mentioned. He wants you to be thinking that *he* is the cool male in your life.
Basically... he's a bit insecure and he's fishing for you to be reassuring to him. Girls do the same thing to our guys, it's a way of testing the waters. Flatter him up a bit and help him feel more secure, and this sort of behavior will disappear.

because he has a lot of respect for you and probably puts you on peda stool. Basically He likes you but doesn't think he's good enough for you and probably values the friendship more than a relationship and doesn't want to **** that up

It's called mental abuse and it gets worse. He's trying to mess with your head. He may not think so ... abusers rarely think they are in the wrong. He has a lot of dis respect for women in general. You don't need this ... hopefully you know that already.

He doesnt want you that bad, or wants to see if he's the only man in you think about, he's just playing little games with you

he's just probably trying to see how you react when he says that he could see you walking down the hall holden a guys hand... he just wants to see if you actually want to make a move
