Mixed Signals

I have had many boyfriends in the past, but i love exciting new things and that interfered with my love life. I may sound selfish, but I got bored fast.
But not him. I can't figure him out. And the worse part is that he knows it too. He is gorgeous and is a guy who normally would be out of my league; I wasn't going to pass on this guy though. So I tried to put my usual charm on him and I thought we were going in the right direction. I was going to tell him how I felt too, until I heard from a friend of mine that he was saying he didn't like me that way. I was crushed.
My pain soon turned into anger, so I started flirting with a bunch of guys around him, trying to make him jealous. It soon back-fired because he told me that he wouldn't trust me in a relationship. Everything was going wrong, and I was getting fed up with this first grade drama, so I tried getting over him.
We were ignoring each other but every time I saw him, there was tension in the air and we could both feel it. I took it as nothing until I finally moved on, then he started talking to me a lot more; flirting with me a lot and dropping hints that he liked me.
I couldn't help myself and started to love his old ways again. A few weeks later he had the perfect opporunity to tell me how he felt, but instead, he made a joke about it. I wasn't amused and was just done with him.
So we stopped talking, then the tension in the air was still there, blah, blah, blah. It is a constant repeating circle and I can't get the nerve to tell him how I feel because I feel he will just laugh it off.
My heart is close to broken and I don't know what to do. I really like this guy, but I don't know how to end this vicious circle and just be happy with him. Help?
