Why would my friend encourage me to talk to my crush at work, only for him to tell me days later he found it weird I have a crush on him?

Background My friend doesn't have any romantic feelings for me! Anytime we hung out, he was constantly late. Sometimes 2 hours late! He also made it very loud and very clear, he isn't in a relationship with me and he has no obligations. He also made it known he never wants to be with me. He didn't even come and see me for my birthday and he wasn't there for me when my Mum passed away. He is currently seeing someone else.

Why would he encourage me to talk to my crush at work, only to turn around days later and tell me it is weird I have a crush on him? My crush and I have never had a conversation but I have spoken to everyone else at work and even had conversations with them except my crush. He is quite friendly towards everyone else at work but despite keeping my distance from my crush while at work, he doesn't really talk to me, his body language also comes across like he wants me to stay away from him, hence the reason for why my crush and I have never spoken to each other. My friend is the only person who knows about my crush and no he has never met my crush either

Sorry for the long post
