When I bring up discomfort when he is acting "friendly," I find that it often just exacerbates the situation, i.e., he makes a scene, calls me out on being "standoffish," etc.

He is using emotional blackmail.
You can stick to
"No." "Keep your hands to yourself".
It doesn't matter if he has his little hissy fit and makes a scene. You are still entitled to stick to your guns.
You are entitled to decide who touches you, who puts his arm around you.
