I think Openeyes gave great advice. Talk to him...I think it very, very strange that as nice as you describe him to be that he would brush you off. He may very well be concerned that he did something wrong, or he may've possibly misinterpreted your intent in your own text message. Communication is key.

Don't lose heart, and try not to worry. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

Hugs,
