Should I ask again or not?

Anonymous

So I had this friend who's all flirty with me. When I asked him if he likes me, he made a long pause before telling me I'm too direct and asked me why I asked him that and I told him he's making me confused. He looked uncomfortable so I changed the topic. I was hurt by him not answering my question. So I took some distance from him for a few days and things became a bit awkward but we're okay now. But I put up a wall now. He's still flirty with me and he's even more blatant these days but I'm not really responding to him. I'm still affected but at least now I have walls. Sometimes I feel like I'm hurting him and I don't want to hurt him because he's still my friend but I don't want to hurt myself either. Should I ask him for the last time about it? Whether he likes me or not? Just for a closure and my peace of mind and heart.
