I don't mean to be a downer here or anything, but "Bob" wasn't really being that rude. He just stated that friendship is not an on/off switch that you can flip and make everything hunky-dory. He's right: it's not up to
you
whether
he
thinks you're his friend or not.
And crying in front of him was probably extremely awkward for him, so I doubt it won you any points. It also seems a bit melodramatic.
Friendship is organic. You can't just latch on to someone and say, "You're my friend, right?" and expect it to be a real friendship. There has to be a mutual care for one another that's felt by both parties, and that care doesn't just develop because
you
want it to.
