I agree with everyone here, move on. They real question is why are you attracted to such a person in the first place? Macabre interest? He's really attractive? (so what) Pity? It's difficult to understand why this is even an issue for you, unless there is something about this situation that is feeding you.
That's what a competent therapist asks people: "What are you getting out of this situation?" The good ones are good at guiding you to understand what you're actually getting from the situation that makes you want to stay in it.
Why do you even need to ask this? You've surmised that the guy isn't actually interested in you-- by the fact that he won't respond to your invitations to spend time together-- so that should be your signal to put him in your rearview mirror. (Even if you didn't want to, his actions-- or rather, non-action-- are forcing you to do so anyway.)
(And just because someone talks to you doesn't mean they're attracted to you. Maybe he just wants to be friends. I admit that I don't understand this attitude of "there is no place for someone in my life if our relationship isn't sexual/romantic." OP, are you male?)

Or he could have ADHD and simply drifts off into his own thoughts and doesn't realize he's staring at something/someone...
This is so messed up and I'm emotionally exhausted but I've grown kind of attached to him. It hurts. Should I just kick him to the curb and never look back? I keep asking myself why this is happening. I feel like a fool. I would never lead someone on whom I don't fancy. It's just sick.
^^^^^^^This. He doesn't fancy you. He is playing with you and enjoying it too.
