Is it a bad thing that I feel as if the guy who wants to stay friends is avoiding me now? We do not have any of the same classes but we pass by every morning and he never says hello anymore. When I asked him out he said he wanted to stay friends but I feel as if we are not even friends now so he does not talk to me I dont talk to him.

Yeh, he probably doesnt want to lead you on... however... I do think theres better ways of him conveying this because like you said, you were friends before and im guessing it wasnt easy for you to take that step and ask him. He should be more sensitive to your feelings by at least saying hello or something so that you both are reasurred that your friendship is still intact. Maybe he's shy I guess. Give it a while see how it goes like another user said before it may just blow over and you guys would be back to normal. Either way hun try not to let it trouble you if he's a good friend you guys will find a way to put the awkwardness aside and move on as stronger friends then when you began. And if it doesnt blow over then he wasn't worth it as a friend or future partner

He probably doesn't want to lead you on to believe that there will be anything more. Quiet-echo is right about people becoming comfused when the person they are interested in is still being friendly, it will still give you hope that maybe something is there. Don't worry too much about it, once it blows over I'm sure you two will be friendly again in the future.
