As the title says, there's a guy I've seen in passing for a few months now. He's a regular bus driver I see to/from work, and I think we've made it clear to one another there's an attraction there. He does shifts and I'm set hours so it's not every day but often enough to familiarise ourselves.
We were a little bit flirty from afar, every time I'd see him he'd already be looking at me, he'd always catch my eye and smile at me, sometimes winking, visibly checking me out. Over time we've tried to catch each other for a few minutes to say hello and get to know each other, in the last few times we've seen each other he's stopped me to have a chat.
In our last conversation he got a bit more personal, asking what I did for work, age, that sort of thing. He seemed unfazed with what I told him. He said he'd be doing a different shift the next day but he'd see me again the rest of the week. The next time I saw him he was a little short with me, I got the impression he didn't want to chat that day so I didn't hang around, and kept moving. The day after, it was the same thing. And today, it was the same thing.
Usually when he sees me, he's smiling and looks genuinely pleased to see me, today he was looking everywhere except at me. When I could, I said a cheerful "Hi how are you" and he just said "Hi" and didn't look at me. It felt like a gut punch and I don't know why he'd be so chatty and open and be completely different the rest of the week.
Was I reading into things too much?

Normally, I would say you’re reading into it too much, but it sounds more like he’s doing that passive aggressive bullshit and not being a man and telling you what his issue is.
I would suggest letting that one go no matter what.
My guess is if you started something with this guy, you would end up very unhappy.
that passive aggressive crap just piles up cuz he can’t express himself and you have no idea anything’s wrong, so there ends up being a huge pile of problems between you, all of them small and virtually meaningless, and any single one sounds ridiculous but all together creates relationship problems that are beyond repair likely before you know there’s a problem.
My exwife did that to me and it sucked, cause I would have done most anything to repair our relationship but her pile of small issues was too big by the time I knew there was any issue. And she couldn’t name one reason and it’s because none of the issues were very bad and all were very easy to remedy, had I known when it happened. But by time I knew, it was too late. Now I’ve suffered financially and emotionally and lost my daughter through it all and I’m a very depressed person these days.
Dont be like me! Lol
Yes, you most certainly were. You don't even know this guy.
Ask for his number or give the same energy. If he can’t tell you what’s up at this point then sis just let him come to you instead
