How to deal with a Playboy?

There's this player I'm in love with who's being hot and cold with me. I've been in touch with him for the past 8 months. We have mutual friends. His hot and cold behaviour is taking a huge toll on my mental wellness.
I've been dealing with him with patience and without losing my self respect. Like even if I go crazy for talking to him, I wait for at least a day before texting him and try to act not desperate for him at all.
Whatever. But he's an asshole and I tried to connect with him emotionally, but I don't think he has any heart. How can I make him get attracted to me and crave me? How should I deal with him?
I love him but he playes with my emotions I know. I want to get over him but I also want him to miss me.
I might sound confusing but he's really making me suffer A LOT. I don't know what to do.
