His actions do bother me a little because it seems as though he is very deliberately trying to punish you. Not just in a "I need time" kind of way.
If I remember rightly, doesn't steam have an offline mode? So you can play your games without being online in steam? If you could not see him in your FL it might help a little.

Steam does have an offline mode, and I usually play most of my single player games while offline. I play a lot of tf2 though and thats a multiplayer shooter, so I can't play that offline. You also can change your status to offline without actually being offline which prevents people from talking to you (and you from seeing your friendslist). I do talk to a few others besides this person thats ignoring me so Im not too keen on changing my status to that. I've just been trying my hardest not to check my friendslist when im on so that I cant see that this friend is online and at the computer.
As for the possibility that he might be punishing me, Im not sure what to say to that. I don't think its likely since hes never done that to me before and I cant think of anything he would want to punish me for. At this point though I really can't say for sure thats not the case. I guess I'll have to deal with that whenever he starts talking to me again and if I feel like thats what he was doing I'll address it and take the appropriate actions.
