<human>: Hello all! Hoping some people clear a few things up for me. I'm pretty confused.

So I met this friend through gaming about a year ago and we're very close. We talk every day and play games almost every day. He does/says things to show me he cares all the time but then he does stuff like not wanting to meet me that confuse me all the time.

So I'm going to be where he lives for 5 days and he tells me he's out of town for the weekend. Um, ok...so that leaves 3 other days he can see me. I know his schedule, after work he just goes and plays games so I'm pretty hurt he can't take any time what so ever to see me.

I've had some people tell me they think he likes me (I'm married) but I don't know. He gets a little weird with me sometimes but he's also bipolar so I don't know what to think. I'm constantly getting mixed signals from the guy. One minute it seems like he cares and we're close and the next he's distant. I'm always feeling confused and hurt lately. Could use some input...

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: Going to be in town and close male friend doesn't want to see me. He acts like we're close and cares one minute then distant the next. Unsure how to handle this sometimes, keep getting hurt and confused by him.
