(22F) My (22M) boyfriend is dwelling on the past but won’t admit it

This story is true I’m not sure why it sounds fake but she basically told my other friends that she didn’t like him. I made my friends ask her that at first because I didn’t want to myself since she asked my “hey do you like him because you come into the group whenever he’s there and you don’t seem to want to be my friend other than that?” I told her I don’t like him. But in the truth of it I liked him a lot and I didn’t want her to know since she seemed to like him but keep it low. She would always go up to him but he went up to her too to talk. It took months of me going up to him in their group setting until he agreed to me asking him out. It’s that I worked a long time for it that’s why.

Also he signed up for classes in her area but we all went to a high school which was a whole town over from where she lives since it was the only private school. So the area she lives isn’t familiar to him Which is why I’m worried he’s trying to see her

And his ego got hurt because she basically told him off publicly after my friends kept asking her why she’s obsessed with him (I asked my friends to do that) to be more specific. And his ego got bruised because since then he ignored her in school. But now we are done with college and he mocks/laughs her when we see her out. Which is like why?
