 I once asked a question about this. To me flirting should ideally mean one and only thing: that you are interested in the person you are flirting with. Unfortunately, many people like to flirt for many other reasons. This could be to see if they still "have it" and can turn on the opposite sex, to play with someone else' emotions, to get something they want for free or low cost, etc.
There really isn't anything wrong with flirting for the sake of flirting, if both parties know it is just a game. The problem comes in when the flirter is not serious about the flirt, but the flirtee (the one he/she is flirting with) is taking it seriously. I am afraid that might have been what happened here.
If you see him again and he continues to flirt, you might want to push the issue and ask why he didn't call. But if he doesn't flirt again, then you can be sure it was a fly-by-night flirt, and you'll know not to take it so seriously next time.
