The healthiest thing you can do for yourself is to ask yourself to be at peace with the odd mystery of his behavior, and to fully accept that your relationship with that person is completely over and done. It will probably take some time. When you do have peace and acceptance you will be able to move on.

Thank you so very much for your kind reassurance on the matter. While I rationally do know this, deep down I can't help but question it and analyze my behavior wondering if I did something wrong. While I am by no means perfect and did not understand what was happening, all I did was offer kindness and support, from bringing his favorite treats to try to alleviate his bad moods to bringing him with me to the farm after he broke up with me so he wouldn't be alone while in depression, which was met either with more unmotivated anger or with indifference since he is so lost within himself and whatever his issues are. I can be at peace knowing that there was honestly nothing more I could have done.
