My last "case" happened over the last month and went something like this: he shows me he's interested, and I feel the same way. We spend an evening out at a concert, laughing our heads off, having a blast. We kiss at the end of the night and go our separate ways. Two days later, he surprises me by asking me out for coffee. During the date, I'm cracking jokes, trying way too hard to be cool, nonchalant, funny, whatever... he’s getting totally confused because nothing makes sense, but he kisses me again at the end. Later that day, I text him to see if he wants to grab a drink, and he says yes. A few days later, I'm out with friends and feeling pretty "festive," so I text him to see if he's out. He says he's out with his crew, so being all "high-spirited," I head to the bar where they are. I think I overdid it there. I ended up following him and his group to another bar, and then he basically sent me home with a couple of other people after giving me a goodbye kiss... instead of taking that as enough, I send him a text asking: "Coming over in 5?" ☕ He didn't reply until much later saying he saw the message too late, and since then, things have gone cold.☕
We hung out one more time over the weekend, where he told me I don't seem sincere and that I don't act like I actually care when we're out. Part of that is true, because I act the exact opposite of how I actually feel... this past weekend he asked me if he was boring me, or if I looked like I was just tolerating him... that's how it looks to him. I want to know how to stop these defense mechanisms, like my fake lack of interest in someone I actually like. 🤷
🤣 🤣
No issue here.

What you’re describing can barely be called a relationship. It ended before it even started.
You saw him three times, and then he told you he wasn't interested.
Honestly, the reason he gave doesn't even matter, because there hasn't been enough time for him to actually get to know you.
Based on what you said, I can only assume he isn't into girls who hang out with him and his crew. 🤷
I don't really get why you're stressing over this.
Relax, live your life, and try to actually get to know a person before you start overthinking everything.
If you want my opinion, this latest guy is just a total flake. 😁
How are you supposed to behave toward him?
You guys barely know each other, for god's sake.
You don't actually have a problem at all. 🙂
Things don't have to happen with every single person who shows interest.🙂
