He ignores me most of the time and was always aloof and uninterested when I approached him with work related questions but later complained to my boss about me being too quiet and not forward enough. Most of the time I felt like he wanted to get rid of me even though he was really not that busy and always had time to flirt or sneak off with his work wife for hours of take 2 hour coffee breaks with friends. With EVERYONE besides me he is very charming, curious and extremely polite. Now whenever he sees me talking to anyone else he stands up and wants me to notice him. One time he came up to me after he heard me chatting with a new coworker and offered me to walk around the site. While he talked to me he was acting weird and looking at the ground or at his laptop the entire time as if he felt uncomfortable or guilty about something. What is this dudes problem? Like I'm not cool enough to be friendly with until some random dude he doesn't know gives me his approval? Am I that ugly?

Why does a coworker ignore me for months but as soon as he sees me talking with others he wants me to notice him and acts nice?

He likes and wants your attention. He's not actually interested in you though.
Why does he want my attention if I’m not worthy and why is he nice and interested in everyone else? Like I have BORING tattoed on my forehead
Your guess is as good as mine. The ego is not a rational thing, I'm afraid.
just ignore him n focus on ur work
I do but you still notice what happens around you. Doesn't take much of an effort to see it
Also my manager told me i keep too much to myself at work
he ain't interested in talking with u
then why does he keep an eye on me talking to others?
probably he wants attention for himself not on u
why would he want my attention if he dislikes me?
no not ur attention
he wants the other person talking to u attention
it could be a narcissistic thing in which they want attention for emselves
No I highly doing he wants the other persons attention.
