Honestly, I find it a little odd that you're worrying so much about how he answers you or pays attention to you... maybe he just wants to keep things professional and doesn't want to look like he's responding to someone who has a crush on him. Guys often have more to worry about in that department then girls do. Now, you may not have a crush on him, but that may be how it comes across (I find it a little odd that you "know" this if there's really nothing going on.)
I wouldn't go to management, because what would you say? "This guy thinks I have a crush on him, but I really don't, but it really bugs me that he's not BFF with me when we're alone together. He just wants to work and that's it." Do you see how that makes it look like he's just trying to do his job and you secretly do have that crush? Be strictly professional around this guy and don't do anything that hints at anything more.
There is another co-worker at my job who I don't necessarily dislike but I don't consider to be friends with either. I never really talked to him and would often ignore him because he seemed like he was tense and in a bad mood. Well, I thought that it would be nice and generally ethical to say hi to him along with the rest of my co-workers so I wouldn't be leaving him out. I started greeting him when I saw him and he would respond if other co-workers were around him but if there weren't any other co-workers near us he would COMPLETELY IGNORE ME. He won't respond in anyway, he'll look forward and keep on walking. He thinks I have a crush on him and his assumptions wouldn't bother me BUT it looks like he is about to beat me up if I come anywhere NEAR him. In order for me to do my job there are times that I have to be close to him. His moods have become more erratic and I want to talk to him although I feel unsafe doing so..
I won't talk to any other co-workers or management about it because they seem to really like him. Who knows, maybe his strange behavior will become more apparent as he works at the same place longer..
Why does he "think" you have a crush on him? Do you have a crush on him? You tried being nice and he wasn't nice back, so ignore him. If you really didn't want anything more than to keep him from feeling left out, it shouldn't bother you a bit.
I feel like I never graduated from high school, considering my workplace is filled with cliques, couples, beyotches and gossip. Oh and there was one guy who used to give me nasty looks and ignore me so it sort of weirded me out when he did start talking to me out of the blue. I don't think much of it though.
