He would always be the first to call, to ask me out, etc. But like I said, when I agreed to go out with him, he immediately becomes a bit cold, even canceling dates sometimes. But when I back off and move on, he's back again showering me with attention. He only seems interested when I'm not. What should I do?

Ignore him when he pursues you since you know he's just going to pull back if you respond.
it's highly irritating when someone does this to you. At worst it really messes with your mind. The more involved with him you get, the more invested like if you actually do start a relationship of some sort yet he continues this, then the more it will mess with your mind. I think it's better to not start anything and just ignore him completely.

 Stop contact with him altogether and he will stop playing those games.

You know some men are just like that. I know men who will literally tell me, they like the thrill of the chase, they like what they think they cant have. It makes it all more appealing. But you cant be too stand offish (like me, lol) you have to give just enough for him to know you at least like him, but dont over do it, let him be the initiater for the most part, while this approach does not work for every man, he seems to be the type that likes a woman to play hard to get. If you find yourself feeling disconnected because you feel like you have to be a b*tch for him to like you, then move on, because hes not the one for you.
