That makes me uncomfortable bc he now treats me different
Oh well. No one else seems turned off like that

I usually let one time slide with someone but YES, the second time is usually my last straw also. Then I keep my distance. He is your manager. Keeping his distance is TELLING YOU that he is not just another one of the employees & he is also TELLING YOU that your behavior was unacceptable. I stay away from people who repeat unacceptable behavior because I don't like it & I in staying away it won't encourage the bad behavior to continue especially if the person doesn't really listen to my telling them it is not acceptable.
He treats you differently because you showed him you behave differently. By behaving the way you do it is causing people to treat you this way. If yiu just did your job & earned your pay without all this inappropriate behavior you would not be treated any differently than others.
Just because others don't SEEM put off doesn't mean they aren't & just aren't showing it yet....so don't push them to the point they are.
