Guy coworker kept mentioning saying I don’t want you to think I’m talking to you when I need you to do something?

[Anonymous]

But than days later he got mad at me bc I ignored him and told me I don’t want you to only talk to me when you need me to do something and said he forgives me anyways im Confused what he wants from me

Is there something more to this story that makes it more confusing? Because this seems pretty straightforward.

He's telling you that he doesn't want you to think he only talks to you when he wants something because he wants you to know that he genuinely enjoys talking to you. He's not just trying to get things out of you.
