But as the years went on in tenth grade we became very fond of each other where we were telling each other everything. I began to like him and never told him but later he found out. Now I am in the eleventh grade he treats me with so much disrespect. A few months ago my friend told me she heard from him that he told her he didn't like me that was why he was being rude to me. I was so angry with him I began to ignore him and treated him the same way he was treating me! After he saw what I was doing he later on started to be nice with me. And I still treated him rudely. Now its been a couple weeks and me and him became a little bit nicer towards each other. He stares at me when I'm not looking and even tells my friend he misses me, and his close friend told me he talks about me a lot. I don't know if he likes me or not? He gives me mix messages. Should I give up on trying to go out with him or just leave him and forget about him?

He likes you you like him. You ask us if you should break up. Figures..
If a man still likes you under these circumstances, it is only good. Do not be mean to him and give him a chance at this. Just treat whatever happened in the past as "getting to know him better".
As a guy, I have to admit I agree to the other answer posted. Guys do suck at expressing emotions. Please understand that we are mainly muscle and slightly brain.
Give it a shot!

 I think there might be something there, it seems to me that in growing up together you both have seen good and bad in each other and him missing you or talking about you all the time is a defiant go I think. And him treating you rudely earlier might be attributed to the ol' elementary school recess thing where boys would pull the pigtail of the girl they liked. I think guys have a tendency to not know what to do with the emotions around them, and that could of been a defense mechanism. I don't think you should forget about him, but maybe let him do a little of the work in the chasing.
