Why does a guy treat a girl emotionally like his girlfriend, but not want to be with her??

I met a guy in my acting class this term, we are both seniors, and started to like him. We have such great chemistry. I thought he liked me too since he treated me emotionally like a girlfriend: hugging, kisses on forehead, hand holding, bringing me soup when I was sick, and staring at me in class.

When I told him that this made me think he liked me he said he doesn't feel the same, but hugged me and brought me soup because it's the responsibility of a good friend. He never acknowledge the staring.

I'm not crazy, I see him looking at my from the corner of my eye and sometimes catch him when I turn my head, he then looks away. WHY does he do that!? He's not sexually attracted to me apparently, as I am "not his type" (he usually goes for blondes) so why does he keep looking at me? It's annoying!

He has a friends with benefits and he said they are going to try to develop their r/s. I'm tired of guys doing this to me, seeing me as the emotional support, but not sexually so that they date me. I'm black, he's white, and his mom's a racist, could that matter? but the girl he's screwing is Asian. I am trying to move on here, but he keeps staring at me and looking away when I catch him. Before I told him how I felt, when I would catch him staring, he would give me a smile. I know he cares for me a lot, but not romantically I guess, so why stare?
